maybe ten thousand feet above us
clouds are tonguing other clouds
stories are being built
way down here, I track every one
of your expressions, use them
to read my fortune
soon a roving satellite will learn
when your smile dawns, I can
ask you about/for anything

Oh, Steph! Me too!
I realized that I mostly do this in maternal contexts now after I finished writing it.
