sought or dispel’d
by her viewer
seedlings of obscurity
breeding endless sand
fingers stroke where speech breathes
to where smells migrate
and yawns and stirs the lover
with infant’s eyes on a date with night
draw passion into syringe

Imagine a Meaning
seeking cracks in brightness
romantic fissures conquering ambition
that other lives
fabrications like diverse repeating decimals
might be liv’d
translating “where I am”
