a glint of the Earth in delight
is in bare sight and how we leap not with
our body but with our mind.
a handful of air swallowing
the air – love that somehow
half-rhymes yet not even so entirely with hover
shows the infinitude of possibilities
when it was not your palm that reads
an incipient star but a moon half-bitten
by an outraged soul when it was not
your body
I have found
but an isle full of noises
and I so much the quiet,
shall not return with the wind so as
to set sail and farther off into blackening space
onto a realized sea tinctured with
such blue blood, o sea, which somehow
rhymes with but the end of
you and I coming to be –
