She

This heartbeat this breath this eye-blink of God
This interstitial instant which we are!

An angel's kiss a mother's knowing nod
(A father's disappointment even so)
Sacred memory of a falling star
To always remember if never know

We ride astride the comet's tail to be
An evening's entertainment from afar
A moment streaked across the evening sky
A diamond dropping through blue velvet night

This now which is then forever to me
Having gone blind to discover my sight
An orgasm imprisoned in a sigh
The meaning of the meaningful is she

The meaning of the meaningful is she


Hi: the climactic line of the poem is a lovely poem in itself. I love it.

Thank you, dear and kind and faraway friend.

The dance of life continues as it always has, surrounded by and lifted by the dead; we dance and we die, without knowing why: we dance.

Respect and solidarity,

+Stevie
