Eventide



Even in memory they are the same
Sunrise sunset
Hues of promise hues of completion
Life's brilliance opening up
Rising like an erection
Life's brilliance receding
Like the face of someone loved
Gone

My summer draws to a close
Already
I am not ready
Fall offers a season of color and repose
Yet its beauty is in decay
Let me go on with our summer play
Let me dance in your spring
Your abundance yet

Let us dance warm nights to our song
We lovers where nothing's either right or wrong
