Haiku Sonnet: The Word For It

images1.jpg

All objects are made
yours by use, each one a doll
of your affection.

At the end of chains
pocket watches twist, speaking
their one utterance,

prayer machines sewing
time together and forming
sentences.  Which day

will words change  into
the things they name?  Not today.
Bodies float in space,

their umbilicals pulled taut,
beaming hushed messages home.
