Between these lines |
in the sea of my doing |
I anchor in you. |
|
We write our relationship |
I plumb the unknown of me |
and explore the width of my mind. |
|
Through this horizontal landscape |
on the reins of language |
my pen tills my soil |
searching for you |
making holy these moments. |
|
Here I can spout and shout |
anything unacceptable |
to the rules mine or their's. |
|
I scrape the brittle bone |
of my hurt |
remember the salutations |
of yesterday. |
|
I lay open my innards |
without fear of infection |
I feel the pain |
that has incubated there |
in my years of resistance |
and the decades of my battle |
with the truth I feared as a predator. |
|
Instead I found gossamer sparrows |
in the moments |
I left time |
and found my soul |
in Now. |
