MOONRIDER
In the swing, I can smell
apples in your hair
and, faintly, some
deeper secret in that scent
The catalysis of passion
the passion of love
the crystalography of love
the beauty of passion
the catalysis of beauty
A formula I incant
to induce sleep—
You can't sleep, yet
nothing awakens you
Moonlight becomes you
You become moonlight
Darkness makes a woman
from shadows
COOKIN'
Love is composed
of basic ingredients—
shared solitude
clean sheets
and the fire
in our bones
EVERYTHING
Everything's
the world.
Everywhere
it's happpening.
Everything is
everywhere.
