3/4/21

uneven



the night is
uneven above us
  lopsided
darker east than west
  always
heavier here than there

I’m pulling
thoughts of you out of
heart and ache
and pressing them onto
little flat screens of
manufactured magic

jealousy abounds in
regenerated cells
that have never known
your touch
  as
words formed without
the ability to feel anything
reach you, cover you
and enter

still,
      what good is love
      if its never more than
      a word that I’ve
      sent to you
      without me
      by its side
