Gossamer

just when we believe our bodies
have adjusted to absence

comes a new season of smoke and wildness

take me now
in this unexpected heat

take me until I cannot help
but bleat your name in hunger

a horizon of geese
naming the sky

Gossamer just when we believe our bodies have adjusted to absence comes a new season of smoke and wildness take me now in this unexpected heat take me until I cannot help but bleat your name in hunger a horizon of geese naming the sky
