The Evenings

I sit tethered to my internet, my red wine and fugue
….and wonder

When last did I dance in the moonlight
     with skin bare open to damp of night
  swaying to symphony of insects serenading infinity?

When last did I languish in a moment of sultry heat and cool relief?

My flesh aches waiting for a moment of real release...

I want to lay on earth and watch the circulation of constellations,
feel the swell of her energy float me above this plane...
