The dark spaces of the night sky Leave gaps of light, yet I see The darkness reach down Between us, like a ***** Leaving a hole For entrance or escape. There is this break in continuity, Not a recess, A lack of balance, a deficient area, Like the hole in a hedge, A military break, A cavity in the denfense's alibi, The distance between the lead runner And the chasing pack. I would like to believe The opening is an intermission, A respite from our intensity, But the breach is a divide, A rift of passage Between two immoveable mountains Where interludes move on Between differences of attitude.

The Gap
The dark spaces of the night sky Leave gaps of light, yet I see The darkness reach down Between us, like a ***** Leaving a hole For entrance or escape. There is this break in continuity, Not a recess, A lack of balance, a deficient area, Like the hole in a hedge, A military break, A cavity in the denfense's alibi, The distance between the lead runner And the chasing pack. I would like to believe The opening is an intermission, A respite from our intensity, But the breach is a divide, A rift of passage Between two immoveable mountains Where interludes move on Between differences of attitude.
