untitled

 
dear [     ]

this morning the world is that dusty light purple
that foreshadows a coming up or a going down.


the skyscrapers begin to mesh with the sky
and they are the same shade such that i can
not perceive which is which.


I am sorry.


i just couldn’t tell you [so many things i wanted to]
or do it fast enough to begin to [   ]  again
which [as much as i wanted us to open each other] is
like the opening of a new sky.


i am helpless in the complicated mess i have created.

do not touch

dear r:

i remember walking
to the park to pick roses
the sign clearly read
“Do not touch”, but you
would say otherwise
and i would carry the
rose home carefully
in my hands and love
her, thorns and all.

happy anniversary

love,
