we were in love once
crackling into flames
or an autumn frost
burning your nose awake
in quiet darkness
dripping life in the cold
warmed by these hearts
balanced on our outstretched
wrists pressed together
the softest kind
peony blooms
shedding sweet petals
in late may as
spring simmers to summer
imbibed with salt water
you sear your palm print
into the back of my neck
draw blood tenderly
ask permission or forgiveness
shattering, fragmented
we steamed up those car windows
already glimpsing the past
in the rear view
don’t you remember?

You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope.

“Everything obscure and lonely disappears. When I walk I feel my legs. I think until there’s no air left inside me.”
— Joseph Ceravolo (1934-1988), from “Cold Night Alone” in “Collected poems. Joseph Ceravolo.”, edited by Rosemary Ceravolo and Parker Smathers

The Night
Descends towards the valley
And the heartbeats of children
Echo to the peaks
Of mountains whose ears
Have petrified long ago
Soft breaths of
Morning only whisper
Between the ridges of
Crumbing soil
As stones rinse into
Rivers and back on to
Shores and the grey
Bones of the earth
Unearth themselves
All at once
