butterflies on Mt. Cammerer

an aerial dance

two butterflies,

beautiful,

black deepened by a dark blue,

they spiral up and down together above us,

an aerial dance to see how worthy each is,

more join, abrupt flights toward, 

away,

darting together, 

then up, 

down,

then exploding away

from each other.
