... and then suddenly
I started writing poems
about someone new
---
I'll let you dream of solitude
but with one arm around my waist
and your uneven breath on the back of my neck
my love
while I stare at the ceiling and imagine the stars
alone together
together alone
I am curious about the laws of gravity
the rules that say woman is wild
and man should aspire to stone
I am curious about the shades of shadow
the ones that hide lovers
and shroud our divine right to paint in nude
I have seen enough to know
blood comes in all kinds of red
and flowers grow from the heart of any sex
Thanks for teaching me
That fires burn and burn and
Just as quickly die
