Love—Spelt Correctly 30 Years On

Love

Loves Sized Approach XX

She collected all the tattoos

from the skin she had posted to him

misty mythical mourning veils

lifted grace ,long set sail

after blended years,missing tears and crying fears

written walls of brick and stone

now aged in a future dance

chance has formed above the pool of broken glass

her chest starts heaving

pulsing decieving

traitorous sensation -tortuous emblazoned ,

nerves growling in growth

she remembers him slicing his flesh

with steel razor in test

life did create the theatres mistake

photos of images

drunken pilgrimages

lean and dark-crushed and small

graveyards to banquet hall

decades wearing eras

she places the receiver nearer to hear him

whispers in showers,meteors of flowers

like autumn leaves the years just blow away

misfortune has been listed

spelling corrected

she sits down waiting

anticipating ,arrival,survival

love completing

the view from the glazing

shows a man distended - frosted in creases

she slowly unwraps the door to greet him

love is the moment when time runs retreating

and the lines on their palms

mix and disolve

so lost with direction,

so found in soul
