After the freeze
a silent sun
draws ice to vapor
skipping the melt
into water.
.
Just the headlines
please.
I don’t watch
the news
anymore.

O goddess of love
I pray you’ll be
the rise of dawn
that lifts me tall
into a selfless plane
beyond the hunger
in my veins
for tender pulse,
for selfish bleed.
I ask you, meet
this longing high
that love be like
a willing star
that has no other need
except to shine.

And after the blaze, what?
Would they,
like snow on fire
end in vapor
against the starry night?
She stands below his mountaintop
frozen to her ache
and lights a match.
