paragraph breaks

longing. the paused friction
of miles and lapses

today’s capsized laps
a plum flesh kiss imagined
incoming, cloud swept days.

sun shimmered,
set a vanished sweet tincture


our day dream, a knit ribbon
fingers anticipate this ridge,

intermittence, silence,
life sentences.

a winter’s quest,
to rewind bridged distance.
