i finally knew
why we never met
on the other side of the move

you packed the broom
while i packed the *****

they have taken my words
and minced them up
in front of me
this is a familiar hell
this oubliette, this hole
this ******* landfill
of words and words and
words have
lost meaning, lost color
as little by little
i am pulverized
to grain, to salt, to dust
over and over again
over and over again
over and over again

in soft hours when your heart’s
awake dreaming
and you feel a soft whisper
gently tracing
your skin, your spine to your soul
that’s me loving
you

it is easy to love a puppy
easy to love any small fluffy creature
not so easy to love an invisible God

ever chasing the immaculately unfinished job
the work in progress / the
underpainting  sketch

a breathing body


a story still being told around the fire


the f r o t h i n g beasts of Time’s chariots, all
sinew and glares :
*** on and in eachother
to carry the burden
henceforth
do not fret, i know you worry, i will paint it over in the spring.

it is a long time since the sun shone in long and low like that.
in the rain-
darkness,     the sunset
being sheathed i sit and
think of you

the holy
city which is your face
your little cheeks the streets
of smiles

your eyes half-
thrush
half-angel and your drowsy
lips where float flowers of kiss

and
there is the sweet shy pirouette
your hair
and then

your dancesong
soul.     rarely-beloved
a single star is
uttered,and i

think
       of you
