The moon wanes as if it’s taken to counting down the days
A post solstice clock sliding across my window each night
Im watching couples in the terminal sway into one another
(The fireworks roll distant)
Your quiet count down is triangulated about the earth in delay
(The earth continues to orbit its star)
Thoughts unbidden
Of your post shower shyness,
Of how soft your body sleeps,
Of conveying all the longing with an embrace,
You exhale
We slip quietly into a new year
