and are not dismissed untill judged.

He did not look the same, he had changed
For better or worse I could not make out
Oblivious to the fact that
we were meeting after a million years
...
Nothing of that afternoon was appropriate.
His coming in late and in the casual manner
asking for the truth, the whole truth and nothing but
...
Nearer than this, can be death.
My hands lie on the coffee table and yours
next to it and we are not grouping

I knew, finally, it was time to meet, to own up and confess.
It’s easy to pretend you don’t care but to kiss and tell
is a very strange exercise. Some one writes of
one hundred years of solitude as if he knew me that well
...
My destiny is contained
In your silence
You prefer absence
...
His eyes were swollen
He was gesturing
making a point
Moving his thick fingers
...
I shop for him
And gift him the stars
the moon and the constellation
...
The Lord of Blue Waters
Has no use for
These kisses and hugs
...
