Amelia: one moment in the street, just now. by Andrew S Adamsher hair casts the shadow
across her eyes, and
in the streetlight orange shade of night
the shelter that she provides
is a blanket from a city covered in
a perpetual night time chill
and as i see her drive into the
distance with the tail light red reminding me
of her recent presence
i wander back to the house
and the artificial warmth
held within,
waiting endlessly
for her breath on my neck
once again. 08/25/2005 Posted on 08/25/2005 Copyright © 2025 Andrew S Adams
