Loves- older, newer-
convene,
form a cohort,
whisper conjectures to name her love.
Love is ever Strong,
eight months hardly Quick,
and the greatest myth
is that love cannot come again.
Loves come closer, with

Yet, still they puzzle
on their multitude.

Only five times each day, I play like my bed frame
is a tweed lounge seat, my shelf is a welcome desk,

Oh, but I trust that this dream would dim,
if I would rest
and turn out your light.

a lingering bumblebee glow,
when the snow dares to fall but is too shy to stay,
and you start to sense that you’re alone,
with the village distant and you in the desert-
I see how you feel in my soul.
But what do you hear? And what do you cry?
What secrets do you know?

The fists that hit,
cuffed.
The feet that kicked,
chained.
