hesitantly
stalactites creep
towards stalagmites
dreaming
of columns
a universal sigh
you get
the picture
disoriented
drawn by desire
pips fall to the earth
was I gone too long
now forgotten …
I hurled myself
into an abyss
the universe
caught me
by the feet
have I lost my reach
can I still touch your senses?
tentatively
she lost herself
his eyes
smooth pebbles
whirlpooling
I catch my breath
hold it close a moment
and hurl it forth
watching seagulls fly
into the blue beyond
the promise of new love
beckoned
she hurled herself
into making art
instead
