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. |
