TRESPASSING.




TRESPASSING.
6/27/10


In summer’s breath we hold still,
Frozen like deer,
On the tracks of obscurity.
An early July sweeps the air aside;
Compassion moves
In nitetime fog and morning dew.

And while the little rabbits run,
We breathe together,
Heavy like the rain at midnite:
Seeking a Forever to hold onto,
Or a taste of the intimate.

But when the trains won’t come,
Your hands fall numb.
With the chain of your necklace
Tangled in my hair, like a misled catch,
I sink into these sheets
Alone again.
