three two one. fade in. you are a dream                     time will                   molder. i return to you each arm. the wildfire of you; flew rubies. pitched; and scalded. moonless, we carried the night like flying-carpet fabric of our soul. the way your words shone, fluttered. clung to the frayed spine. radiance and immaturity. counting you in ribs; starved of stomach. crumbs                                     like gratitude. the shades of you in                                     detuned strings.                                     you wanted to see slide. i dream of pulling focus and zoom but maybe it is better a dream. yours were those of emerald; mine, abstinence. i watch you fade fast fire gone grey fire famished trickle and then drowning; rhythms of limbs and limbs, downy limbs and waterlungs i close my eyes you are a dream                         time will drown and it feels right. a hollowed-out kind of right. fade out
