We know too much about loss
we two – in doing find space
to hide ourselves from future
mistakes for now some how
this works so well for being
not quite what it is not
so well – oh well, just don’t
remember
…not to
(and)
…how i could not not
(and)
…how you could not help it
(and)
…how cruel candescent candles burn
bright on many moments that
will melt away soon
you will see! ...
