To Be Here, Honey |
| We’re two | |||
| dark colliding | |||
| moons orbiting | |||
| some planet I was | |||
| pleased to see | |||
| you seemed to sleep | |||
| < back to poetry titles | soundly I’m | ||
| < back to image | orbiting my future | ||
| < back to giornata.net | husband So | ||
| you slept here | |||
| I don’t know | |||
| what bitter orb | |||
| you’re circling Or | |||
| sweet And now | |||
| you’re across the | |||
| sea Better bitter | |||
| and dark Two dark | |||
| colliding moons | |||
| orbiting that dark | |||
| planet Oh Be- | |||
| longing I just | |||
| can’t know Others | |||
| reveal their symbols | |||
| on temples’ ghostly | |||
| slates or on plum | |||
| cheeks Mine hidden | |||
| Two marks low | |||
| on my back The truth | |||
| is I’ve left that place | |||
| too Two dark | |||
| charred marks My | |||
| night tigress | |||
| Longing Oh Be | |||
| loved My night | |||
| lioness I | |||
| never liked it | |||
| sweet | |||
