I. Love has a pulse A rhythm method Sometimes Hand in hand Others Hand-to-hand Best wedding gift: A book of matches For those times of Darkness ahead II. Coming out of the ether The gravitate to "we" Is no longer in Simulation We are space Outer and uncharted Breathe deep now Once again Let pressurization Begin III. Spontaneous Combustion Magic hour Learn by repetition Crouching tiger, hidden dragon Tongue on the verge Circling the rosebud Like the rise of an empire Blown by the wind Every which way The blissful vein Is tapped into IV. Localized storm Waves against the sandbags Not quite filled enough Water gets in Does its damage The insurance policy With no flood coverage We are now indeed An island V. Sacrificial offering Open palms Bowed heads Recite your sorrows And count the losses Forgiveness comes like Piecemeal A little at a time VI. Something new And loud and wet Love has a different hue To its sky It will be cloud free Never again A hunt for a nap Or dreams of napping In this maddening mosaic That blurs the line between Caretaker and sleepwalker VII. Endurance wins the race Not good intentions Home can survive The change of seasons We plant the flowers We water the lawn We rake the leaves We prune the trees This is our garden If we don't tend to it Who will?
