I awoke to the
moon disappearing ever so
slowly into the folds
of the soft pillows
sleeping next to me
I landed there softly
with fingers quietly touching
the celestial landscape the
high ridges of brow
slipping down into the
soundly sleeping crescent eyes
and down into my
lunula’s hollow of mouth
when at once turning
slowly away from me
my moon which shone
has now turned new

When I see
what I see
where I see
how I see
I then know
why I see
when I see
what I see
where I see
how I see
you sleeping there
then I see
that I see
there I see
now I see
me there too
Bath
And as the
water starts and
begins to fill
at first splashing
and then flowing
I hear you
behind me popping
the cork pouring
and quickly undressing
and I too
as you slowly
slide in first
sighing at warmth
and watching me
as I join
with the zeal
of a child
slipping his letter
addressed to Santa
into its envelope
Vision
I dream of
you here though
we’ve never met
I see you
sitting there standing
here whispering something
that causes me
to rise and
follow I hear
you giggle like
some far off
bell tower ringing
heralding something important
no not death
for you are
not a ghost
but a vision
a prophecy and
a promise of
something better yet
to once come
Invention
I wonder
sitting here
just how
many things
that have
been invented
were mistakes
and supposed
to be
something else
like us
I suppose
having been
one thing
you promised
and another
I saw
