I see you
In the eternal neon twilight
Of your artificial magnificence
And shimmering facades
...
We were just fifteen-
you, me, and my best friend.
sitting inside the cool of your house
playing Dungeons and Dragons
...
Sometimes it is
the low clank of the dinner plate
striking the stainless steel sink
followed by the ting
...
Full bone moon pinned
To the night like a broach
On her soft velvet gown
Of stars and pearlescent skies.
...
For S.P.1932-1963
i
Winter takes leave.
...
I am your priest
kneeling before
the altar of your temple,
the sanctuary of our bed,
...
Beautiful girl
with the easy smile
...
