and especially, i want
to fade into places/spaces/drop-cloth universes where your words are
everything and i want to hum along with the (distant) piano of your
voice while fragmented light falls through covers over my head (to
keep out the monster from underneath my bed)/ the weave smells like
lavender and i think i’ll sleep away the day so i can wake up
within blazing blue jazz-resounding mo(u)rnings that render my mind
in t-e-c-h-n-i-c-o-l-o-u-r so bright it feels like being scalded by
summer storms that ripple (shake&quiver) the pools where -once
upon a (rainy) Winter- it (that wild-wild wind tossed afternoon)
collected in the foot-prints we left behind - - - this is for me
so i won’t ever forget to look up into skies at the flutter of even
the flightiest of bird(ish) wings
