beneath my fingers: smooth, polished wood, a breath. and they long to make their way to the still beating of your heart. there, there, almost as if unseeing you look past me to flip a page, to paint color over words you must remember, yet unremembering--- i am here. sometimes i think you remember me. sometimes, like a shade of crayon appearing randomly in your hand, a soft hushed word. silence. no talk of fleeting butterflies today. no sound of your leavetaking. there, the long silence of an empty hallway. (for A) (in collaboration with jacob dominguez)
