she dances
on the porch
alone,
a single light
touching
graceful arms,
like delicate
ribbons
brushing the air,
searching the space
above
as she glides
over floorboards
of shadows past,
the union of,
but now just one,
gliding turns,
twirling with flow
a cotton dress,
like the earth
weeping time,
unable to
stop

suppressing magnetic chemistry
by doing maths - in your head, like
1, 2, 3, - 1, 2, 3, and one, two: those eyes, lips
and maybe - someday, me...'
