night has you Juliet,
unmoored your eye beams--
rose to its feet as you
took to a balcony.
love at the speed of poetry--
how stars cross themselves.
second guessing a portent
chill, you shook off that silly
girl and starved Romeo-ward.
spilling your face over the balcony,
moonstruck to camera flashes as
Romeo played across the garden.
fate twisting ghoulishly to couple
these kids, sighed an antique sigh--
though greener than ever.
