IN fifty years

I swear every tender morning it’s as if

your eyes have been holding the world together overnight.

a string of balloons.

that’s the me part of this

I think

the string.

say the word and we can carry this house away.

home, rather.

how jazz makes you frightfully angry

and in love

and your eyes blaze in that way that

they do.

do you remember sending me that photo of your cereal last April?

the one by the lawn

autumn laid out like clean sheets and longing.

how you said she looked just like me?

I just know

we’ll be sitting outside on the veranda

the one that won’t stop darn squeaking

moss clinging to us and these

sweet old chairs.

you’ll probably be humming the blues

still

and the sun will be older and softer

in that bathtub sky

but baby,

not us.

I hope we beat the door down

still

dance until our bodies give out

I hope we forever love

with our mouths open and our hearts

full full full.
