I need to find a way of celebrating every breath. The train of day will leave my bedroom soon. I will board, and, walking up the aisle Watch fields and starlings fly. And will forget my breath.
Not so. No more could I forget my breath Than I could you. Comingled With the depths of self Of life wellsprings and watery cells. The grace and faith of the synapse Being, binding blind in blood, Test at any level Oh would I could prove positive for you.
And so like Gods of battlefields remembering soldiers prayers When they in cannon's mouth are blank with fear. Do I not forget. Do I not forget..
For Bev after all these years
