A Cargo of Green Hearts
~POEMS~

No Reason

12/5/2014

 
you wondered for what reason I 
have stumbled into your life upturning 
grocery carts and whispering beautiful forbiddenly I
would offer my wrist up so that you could 
verify my radial pulse yes I am 
among the sweet sacred of living things
listed my heart a running red metronome
my blood happily turning laps in this house
of me it is enough and more that I have no 
reason or other was created on the 6th day 
purposeless contain a personal script 
genes and collisions which have brought the warm 
opposable animal of my hand in cusp to
your cheek lovely freckled that it adored 
like water and so isn't it a special 
magic that I was not written into your footsteps braided
into your warp wend but rather fell inopportune like 
a storm shorn leaf into your hand's 
hand and now imagine you yourself me myself 
and this bump-bumping a kind of wind or love delivering
us the rare birds that live between Eden 
and Fate.
