1)
she was
not unlike
a spanish girl
sprawled there
on a boardwalk
in the sun
in her hipsters
bare midriff
deep belly-button
set in a sallow skin
&
on a hot july afternoon
sparks come alive in me
walking on Weymouth's sands
&
after 35 years
i wish
i could remember
her name.
2)
awake all night
not touching you
an owl perched
near the open window
a bowl of chestnuts
to keep the spiders away
wondering how
to get into your arms
or was it just
a bad dream?
