remind me of the way it tastes on your lips of the way the smoke is coy with you, holds itself around your mouth for a lackadaisical second, the way you appear in shades under the moonlight; is patient; is occurring slowly to my eyes the smoke holds, breathes on its own accord the lapse of lilac scent far removed from last summer in the northern woods, teeming with a softness even in the ********* chirp of birds nestled on birch now it is gravel; it is jarring; it is the way you hesitate like cigarette smoke; caught between leaving too quick or never leaving at all
