if I could dust the salt
right off your lips,
i would, just watch me.
If I could poison
your exact location,
it would be
my favorite vacation.
If I could reach right through
your living room,
slide against you,
close enough to measure,
it would be our pleasure.
If I had a way out,
if I had the sand,
to find the phantoms
of your hands.
we would have a word for free,
and it would be chemistry.
if i could
i would-
if we could
we almost certainly would.
pity for us,
the heavens have conspired.
the stars laugh to tears,
at our other hemispheres.
(and when you say 'wait',
you mean 'come now'-
when I say 'meet me here'
I mean 'show me how.')
