Poems from tokii
you're there
and i'm coming --
feel you in my chest, gushing winter melt
will the flowers be there where you are
is that where they've been...
meadow draped in color water
your eyes stars
heavens and oceans in your smile
meet me here, you say
always
i bathe in the mire while you're away
then i hear your voice, see your face
i wipe my hands to sit with you
is it enough, to be clean when...
i wipe the shame from my bones
wring it from my muscles
strip it from my tendons
your space in my mind
gone
light touch in my mind
hands in hair
companion lips
levity
the brush of you
and i find it fills me
more than this present and arid...
