I’m not saying step away,
I’m saying step back a bit
and give us both room to breathe.

Make it so hot
that it’s not
just ahh
but Oh!

Endless possibility filled the moment
(which happened to be morning) sun
baked me dry and timeless so I became
one with the sky so far
above the ground I hover, delight
in my self now not at all
sad to lose it.

I’m not certain
that my unhappiness
over your sadness
and my desire for you
to be nothing but happy
is really the same
as loving you

I only live to love you,
certainly not to be served
and so it hurts to go on like this.
I only live to love you
and to heal.

Not a parent nor a prince,
neither president or king,
ones lover not-self
but God.

The stones I leave at the gate
can be used to trace new paths
or bar access to the existing.
Place them accordingly – you decide.

We only had words, no meaning,
long liturgical drones,
endless hours, sonorous
dirge-like ponders, attempts
to reveal the roiling core
of our humanity, of love as ground
for creation, essentially to invert,
to feel likewise on the inside,
overlooking already being
once removed from having once felt,
a mist on the face of the water.

They left me alone
to see if I’d take
a cookie, but I didn’t
so I fooled them. I know
a setup when I see one.

I felt
her kiss
even through
the bandage.
