remember, sometime will become
the rest of your life
we feel each others fingers as they mingle
with each others hair
we never know from which is which
or where is where
until we have to part to start anew
awakened by
not the light
but the breaking of light
a freedom sound
as it escapes from shadow
the chase, the capture
the escape,
night following day
light penetrating night
pursuant to the new
it was before your time
murmurs, then moans
then a breath inhaled by two
exploding into you
conceiving something
greater than themselves
pursuant to the new
striving toward equality
a neutrality that would remove
all striving
pursuant to the new
It was after our time
when history returned
there was never a new to pursue
only an undiscovered part
of the turning wheel
