too cold to get up
half-dreaming of an old flame
more ash than fire

Soul meet 5/14/15
if we meet next life
let’s please NOT get together
just tea would be nice
Winter
We share warmth
And embers of hope.
We are the shelter
Of each other.
Star-Crossed
Once we circled each other,
You and I, a double star
Attracting comets and moons
And lesser planets.
Now, we do not share gravity.
Our orbits go in other spheres
Rich in new worlds, new suns
Blooming from the old amity.
Torch Song
As the great disappearing act ends –
you from me, I from am,
then from now —
murmur me a memory
of the worlds I saw in you
of something you saw in me.
Come! Here and now;
let us breathe again to speak,
kiss, and weep in lost tongues
of our dead seas, our buried cities.
To Emily Dickinson
If eloped to California or Spain,
Could verses have drawn breath
Would a husband have grudged
Time to read, scribble or even think
As clandestine darlings clawed your
Little wren’s heart for a pale piece
Of swaddling and a vein of ink?
