You came to me last night.
First time.
In three decades.

How
I cried when you         left.
Not tears.
I had
no         right.

I soul-streamed         instead.        From pores.
Traitor body droned.
Seismic tre-more-d.
Hope
        departing.

Last time.
I ever prayed.
                        Bargained.
As the young do.

My years.
For         more you.
Crucible promises.

You.
Half         turned
from me.
As if you had
never gone.
No heart's         leap
of recognition.

    You
    had
    never
    gone.
              In dream.

Whiplash of
                understanding.
You.         There.         Me.         Dreaming.

Turn.         Round.         Please.         See.         Me.
You would
                not.
Eyes fixed on
earth.
Heart
   plumb-bobbed.
Mind
  theodolited.
                        Breath         spiritlevelled
Remember
this.
Remember.
                        But
                        I want to
                        come
                        with you.
Self reach
ing
        go
ing.
        Then.

        Plucked out
        by scruff.
        Kittened.

I remember.

I remember.

I remember.

Dont.        Go.

                        I have kept my promise.

                        Keep yours.
