You are Wind


"though i pay little attention to these things
written on charts what i read is your skin
that took its marks before me
and your hair that never waves farewell but always hello hello i made it how are you?

Your girl's slip like the lip of a valley of wind

carrying with it the scent of things i cannot see...
sense memory of the sea and a perfumed jewel box
given to you by your mother the day you were born.

A forest exhales through fragile painted lips
and the seeds of a faithful sewer settle upon my tongue"
