loose threads

a smattering of things

  • the orange blossoms are awake and whispering through the window screen
come dance with us
in the moonlight

  • i hate goodbyes —
that is to say,
a canyon opens between my ribs,
a river nourishing all that creeps, swims,
and sways in the gentle breeze
of your absence
transverses the length of my spine
caressing careless boulders
to cascade over this lip of time
that we do not touch

    transverses the length of my spine
