At 39 Weeks


These days

are tied down

mostly

by print and paper


or they stay

asleep

firm, ripe plum,

plump.


Still your hands

seem webs or nests

--places

that are home


And i miss twisting

around you like flame,

making you disappear

inch by inch,


sweetly, in sweat:

while your touch

like twilight, smudges

me purple-tinged.

easy like Sunday mornings

Life was easy today. Being honest so I don't get more undue credit. We stocked up on food for the week, and then... headed for the beach...
