A Gnostic Psychic
Wrinkles in time produce erasures of mind
Loving you with only the faint residue of who I am
Like a hard drive wiped clean
But the user’s sweat still clings to the keyboard
The interface had to wait to be reformed
My inner face smiles when it sees our connect was reborn
The metaphor is fitting
But the brain is more
Than an information system
Waiting to be accessed
We’re not technology and plastic
Imagine this- you and I
Soul mates of a kind
What is a mate but a friend
Is that a crime to believe
In another place and time
We shared an intimate exchange
Is that strange that you were mine?
Oh to turn a phrase
The words like sugar on a cane
They thrust on the the page
And make love to the mind that retains
The heat from my flame
I’ll say it again
Imagine this- you and I
Soul mates of a kind
What is a mate but a friend
Is that a crime?
To believe in another place and time
We shared an intimate exchange that was sublime
