how the summer bends around those highways
like a lover's fingers reaching under
to that place only our secrets know about
making my mind hurry into leaning closer

I know your perfume on the wind there
the scent of whisper pine and lavender
something simmering from the god pots
and weaving into the sky to pull down flowers

and at river brims there are your eyes
looking through my cellophane at the leather
wondering how you can make mosaics from tattoos
and bend them into lockets for your breasts

as if you would open my wounds on purpose
to form them into new gloves for your soul
and would reach inside my gravel heartbeats
just to make scars of your very own

on the backs of your lovely new day fingers

mixed with ocean breeze and sand scents
where salt mixes with fog and sun
and more.



liking this...a lot!

Love the way summer bends around those highways, it's all
so familiar, the panorama, so picturesque and meaningful.

~Big ol' sigh~~

You just know how to simmer a poem to perfection, DS.

Oh boy, this was a thrill a minute!!

To open the wounds of someone to make gloves for a soul while cutting hands on a heart are very stark and frightening images.

EB..thanks for the read...with any good highway there are some hazards and some discomforts one must endure/enjoy to make the ride worth while...this piece of road has some turns that keep one on the edge of maybe and maybe not.
