VIRGINIA

June 2062

As she approached the sleep-slot prep room one of her own poems-if indeed they deserve such a highfalutin’ name! -came rushing into her head.

Your musky hollows

Sand-colored, rutted skin

neatly fitted bones, calcium cage

to house a heart I enter,

and would devour

if only we had icy slow days.

I could rhyme

the tick of time,

frame elegant meals.

No springtime in Gehanna.

The long cold orbit out

could not cut the years

we have left.

Time’s fair gamble,

days not yet done.

Perhaps they’ll dwindle down

to none. But they will

see us entwining

together in the sun.
