there were liquid stairs in your voice then
like the sound of going higher
where the windows would know the rain again

you met my eyes at the highway sigh corner
where there were no places for u-turns
but your smile had known the locks were changed

it was hard to follow you without just wanting
so we took our time untying the ribbons
like they were innocent places being discovered

and were underwater enough to burn my tongue
like sipping tea that was just a tease anyway
as you waited at the top of my stare ways

just to save me from the liquor of your storms

Metaphorically perfect, DS.
Nothing soothes like a good high-window rainstorm.

This implies so much. B-rain stimulating! You are better than sudoku!

Viscous poetry now...
even when heavy
becomes fairly see-through

gotta love the flow of this.

I just have to smile everytime I read you.

although,
Sometimes I need a primmer to know what the heck you are talking about,
and sometimes, it doesn't matter because it all sounds so cool.

You have my admiration.

The metaphors are absolutely wonderful. Where do the words come from?  Your thoughts take me back to happier times - thank you for sharing your thoughts.
