the paths we make there
in the gypsy winds of noon
they are separate breezes

the eye closed men whisper
when we enter from other sides
as if they know we are not one

but our edges long to be seams
with healed melding history
and our skin makes the same sounds

when we touch our tattoos
with lover's hands reading poems
between the lines of ourselves

drinking our prayers like free whiskey

I have no tattoos and whiskey isn't my kind of drink and yet these lines, dear Poet D., make me shiver in delight.

Love,
