A face in the mirror
Reflecting back the light
Time carves these lines
I try to believe you
While inside I die
I’m fading, dissolving again
The light in me is ending
Burns through my head
I’m fading, dissolving again
The light in me is ending, it’s over
We’ll wake up in the morning
Reaching out to the sky
Waking up, the sun is mine
Wake up in the morning
Today I can’t fall
As I set new fires alight
It’s in the mirror
I’ll hide my light
And drown my name
I try to believe you
While inside I die
I’m fading, dissolving again
The light in me is ending
Burns through my head
I’m fading, dissolving again
The light in me is ending
Burns through my head
I can’t find my flame
I’ve faded away, away tonight
Wake up in the morning
I once held the sky
Waking up the sun was mine
Literature
l'amour a distance
we love like vagrants,
ours a truck stop romance,
ours all the vagaries of
runaway time:
us a roadside motel,
us a highway map,
us a crumpled collection
of interstate lines.
ours a vagabondish worship
of the distances we drive.
and all the violence of longing,
is that yours or is it mine?
and the vacancies in my body,
are they yours
or are they mine?
Literature
Kiss the Sun
Sunlight kisses
my eyes,
slanting
through lobby windows
across old furniture
and yellow-and-green carpet.
and mare's tails,
drifting,
whisper of more good to come -
dry days are ahead.
I see you and I see light
making these simple things
out of darkness
and when the sun kisses my eyes
I want to kiss it back,
and I do,
with head full
of words
and eyes richly speaking.
You've said things I remember
and don't
and I've said things I remember
and don't
but I remember most when words
stopped and
our language
was spoken through
light beams and darkness.
Literature
flicker flame
you are so delicately edged.
midblue spring, candlelight whitewash;
i bet your face would look good
behind the flame-
on the other side
of this godforsaken
cracked mirror,
where i am.
where
i
am,
grasping at the flicker
only to get singed
and recoil into darkness
