~ *Where went utopia As the years trickled? How you wished for Southern hemisphere To see the way snowflakes fall Your mind A place of quite friction But I can't mend a rift by telegram Love is a miserable miracle Fighting over the lighthouse From the days of occupied Europe It's lustre as Brief as photographs Left outside in the sun Bloodflow wander, rise Be wise, take care Can we reminisce? Near miss eyelash These frayed edges Love is a miserable miracle I often shot off a flare In the direction of conspiracy They all fell as poison rockets Became scuttled ships In a water globe On the day of the conjugal visit You wore barricades to bed There's a perimeter around your form I went to reminisce About the lines and patterns Of your avant garden In such severe drought Palo volador—in motion with emotion This is for our sins Love is a miserable miracle In piety I reached across and felt the chasm Before I felt your fingers And there it was Love sitting under the lantern's glow A soft marauder reflection Illuminating into the iris Kisses past, kisses hence Prima materia It's a simple equation: We twist the sun and sea Eternally "The linkage bonding One to the other And me to you"* ~

I Reached Out Across the Great Divide to Touch You and Felt Only a Chasm
