captured the gauze
between eye and focus;
a blur of half-notes, decay
at its sweetest, and you,
wrecked on the black keys,
as breeze sways the chords
from your thin summer dress
one shy kiss at a time.

went to the library
signed out her heart
the little card said
“due date: two weeks”
I‘m hoping to find out
what the overdue fee is
for two weeks
plus thirty years.

the city pours into the block
a matter for bricks to decide
of frail carts horses fish stalls
of laundry sailing high above
the hot cold the in-between
sidewalks cracked by time
epidemics fires riots poverty
and occasionally the bloom
of a singular perfect romance.

Twirly moustachioed type seeks damsel:
into romantic getaways, long walks,
vintage trains, insurance policy minutiae,
rope crafts & railroad tie manufacturing.
Must be willing to travel away from home
for indefinite periods of time.

between her lines;

As the first late autumn snow falls in blankets, I shall remain swimming naked under these morning sheets - a different sort of landscape, revealing a ridge of backbone laid bare by the glacial withdrawal of evening - I can see my hidden breath, and it, me. Time for one more sleep. #mornings #sleep

“When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.”

Quite possibly the loveliest song ever.🥰
