I hide in the dark:
secret plans in the making
would undo all good
Faraway moon shines
across so many borders
on your eyes and mine
I wake shaken:
Dreams of battle and travel
For the second time
All my foolish ways
Return to taunt me tonight
As the world grows dark
when these two meet
love given and love received
trembling hands fall still
.
(Is there anything greater that requited love?)
Tossing here since 3
Awake for over an hour
Fucking kill me please
.
4:15-ish a.m., on being awake for over an hour and being damn cranky about it.
Evening light dimming
Between two times and places
Existing and not
Words escape today
Stanzas run the other way
Is there nothing left?
Beg gracious pardons,
put yourself first for once and
go before them all
Wake sleep wake again
Room for one more white helper
Smooth edge jagged edge
.
