And then when
Our love became
The game tug-of-war
And rather than
Pulling you into
The muddy pit
That we’d become
I simply let
Go of the
Rope and surrendered
And we stood
There staring and
Wondering why
And when and
How and now
What what now

HeartBeat
Ah to live
Love lose and
Learn in order
To be able
To live and
Love again this
Is what makes
My heart beat
Until the end
Entanglement (to boo)
When two people
Come together wholly
Certain of who
They are separately
But absolutely uncertain
Who they are
Together this is
Called an entanglement
How do they
Know simply look
At their hands
And their legs
And their lips
If those are
Entangled so are
They right now
ThisDay
Like a slice
Of warm pie
The east glows
An iridescent buttery
Pastry flaky yellow
And disappears into
The gooeyness of
Midnights blueberry filling
Ala mode naturally
With the appearance
Of Saul now
Melting into daylight
Bite after delicious
Bite I too
Become this day
HereByMe
Where do you
Go when I’m
No longer thinking
About you what
Happens to you
When I don’t
Remember what you
Sound like you
Must go somewhere
Anywhere but here
Disappearing like sand
Foot prints out
To sea you
Go with all
The others to
Be free with
All of them
No longer held
Here by me
