song of songs

song of  songs


that song 


it always takes me back

sixteen with grazed knuckles

smiling innocuously at the tides

of the heart’s walking

looking for directions in

the vacuoles of the stumbles


many songs 


at the heart’s breaking 

the long teenage days flowing so fast

breaking on the rocks of the tide’s misadventures

boys with crusts as tough over the molten as

the eruptions of acne between the bristles

boiling over time after time


the song


at our hearts’ meeting

two open locks locked together

no keys to that eternal locking 

so many doors opening in a closed world

binary stars collapsing 

into a golden whole
