a fever
black as hell
for eyes
as dark as night
~~
savoring
the nearby fruit
the nearby fruit
of touching skin
~~
traveling beyond
the senses
grasping
a grounded cord
~~
must I post
on a Times Square tower
for you to give me the hour?
~~
our atoms
two pieces
of empty sky
~~
before me
you stood
you stood
arrested
~~
binding time
in memories
warped as fire
~~
music
escaping
indifferently
Note: “a fever” alludes to Shakespeare’s sonnet, “My love is as a fever, longing still”
