Napo 4/15/24 Postage Fee

 Today's prompt. Veered slightly in a different direction, but definitely enjoyed the oddities of postage.

letterbox empty again
what once was overflowing
[river after rainy season] is now
parched like dry earth's croaking
demand for water.

sliced oranges and almond bits
arranged on a platter
[behold, a feast] for you
my peace offering
on children's party plates.

a room untouched
austere and dust-settled
[monument in waiting] space
for the eventual 
point of return.

black cat mysteries
truth in shadow and light's 
[fooled you again] malfeasance
where I am left questioning
most of everything.
