feast

calm
 cool 
ease


we did
 feast;

it felt
 like a thousand times deja veux


yet in a heart beat

we had never met

for you I was

For you

I was

soft
and gentle;
a part

of me
I had not

loved.

Dust lightly
brushed

away;

I shined.

the hours

losing track of time;

she meant to be writing

instead were she academic-ing

shards of her belaboring 

the hours

the days

the years

to be returned without receipt

not yet knowing

goat whispers

to lead her on;

she

is a two-date girl

who gets lost

in the not yet knowing

cocooned

Morning,

sky bright, cocooned

in the eye of the storm

driving North into a deep

gray hue; gray

like that day, like your leaving.

Ten years

Since I killed you; finally

I have learned to live.

dream visions

fever
I close my eyes
and turn the doors
louder, I
sway the vertigo
like a
slow. rag. doll.
weightless, I
sweat visions from pores
