truth and happiness devoted to you my dear
some sunny day you look back and see
among a busy life a sudden path
may come along and take you anywhere
then look back at this

somber almond eyes so dark
pleading come
a face of salty silk
taste
wounds came forth were
healed
her hips thrusting forth with
the sea's force
an ebb flow
an almost surreality
among visions of
longer nights
ahead
but brevity
broke in
now
I am stunned
remembering

my love for you
is traced along
the borders of
east Jesus nowhere
Pennsylvania
lingering in
the middle
of me
being verdant
and withering
and you
not being
able to grow
your chest is
Shangri-La (i cry when i think about it)
i want to break into you
and live inside
the coating
of your skin

to beautify the dust of me
someday
to call the will tamed
away near
to specify a psalm
heard once
to once touch
in eternity
to calm a worn frazzled
mind in
reminiscences looking
out  of
an old window stuck by layers
of paint
and sainted dreams withered lost
and quaint
all that is left like an elm leaf
blowing
in the winds of time and serenity
I hope of
destiny
