You asked me to call
once I got home.
Home,
a place I'd never been before.
Before I met you

I dreamt a dream
Of better days
Filled with you and me
And the way we played

I dreamt a dream
Of brighter skies
Of entwined bodies
Of moans and sighs

I dreamt a dream
Of warmer nights
Of grassy cuddles
And starry sights

I dreamt a dream
A dream of you
Of Exotic places
Of things anew

I dreamt a dream
Of future times
A dream of a dream
A dream in rhymes

I dreamt a dream
Of infinite terror
A dream of loss
I dreamt in error

The ice
                        forest
       exhales
a tingling             caress
          across my
              face

i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body.  i like what it does,
i like its hows.  i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones,and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz
of your electric furr,and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh….And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill

of under me you so quite new

The wipers interrupted our strained silence.
Even the radio was turned off (I was trying not to cry.)
You were ever-so angry and I was ever-so sorry.

Later, you told me over the phone I was special and you loved me.
I just wasn't sure you meant it until you showed up on the doorstep.
