At river's bottom

more private here,
the world can see
yet
you need not.


memories pouring out
of touch
sorrow
run~away me.


a small screened place
on the Maury
tubing
tumbling
never worrying.
kisses/rumpled sheets/dream clouds.

I wanted north
and more. 
You wanted west.
I went.
And cried the night of the first game.
Years later I know you couldn't understand
different we are
we tried.


'Tis not a game.
Our skin surface damp, breath lost, as
summer
shimmers
and the fall awaits.
