Sensuous day today.
The morning coffee
caressed my tongue
the car glided down I-95
...
You know rain drops
why a spruce is tall
the vastness of the sky
the reason stars don't fall
...
Racing from the tunnel
to the surface streets of my face
the tightness in my chest
signals the dangers of faith
...
Do I really care what happens
to the camels
on this caravan to my end?
Were it in my power
...
So frail yet so brave
holding on to hope
yet knowing
you were on your way.
...
Darkness covers outside
but I'm not done
with the day yet.
Like an unlit candle
...
I've left through your thoughts
Are you still breathing?
I was hoping I'd left
a trail of golddust
...
It isn't any lies you've told
I know of none, my love
nor have I seen lust
...
I wish my hands
didn't smell of you
this morning
...
In a translucent moment
I saw beyond your reasoning
...
