Just past twilight

Enchanted by the night
Rolling lust of cloud
Sighs the moon
I love you.
Warm summer air
Climbs into me
Up inside me
I don’t even need to breathe
The sweet violation of my lungs
By bread and fumes and flowers
Night blooming ecstasy
Belisha beacons blink
A blurry fantasy
Stripes and checks and balances
Feet glide along
Unfettered by fear.
Leaf and bud and root
Hand over hand
Soul clambers high
To find the hidden sky
Peeking from behind
Rolling lust of cloud.

  1. Leaf and bud and root
    Hand over hand
    Soul clambers high
    To find the hidden sky
    Peeking from behind
    Rolling lust of cloud.— I loved these last lines.
