Distance so great
must be traversed
in no time – from
you and I to we, from
thought to thought,
eye to hand, from
ignorance to love,
from life to death,
and all our history
poured into our living
circle, the one we
make and remake
and make again and
never shall arrive,
we build it outward,
we curl up inward,
a beating heart – this
is what our love
looks like,
in no time.
