Text:
you are always dancing around these edges here; there; here again...
i catch you in the soft hello of the tide, and the quieter goodbye,
i catch you in the space between crystal frozen breaths, when i know
that autumn is folding over, and winter is setting out her course,
and i recall how you would read the weather like horoscope signs,
and that was the only way you were ever predictable, when it rained,
you would leave, when it snowed you would leave, when i needed you;
here; there; here again; and no one knows how long this winter will last
no matter how many times the land freezes it always thaws again, and
where do you think you're going so quickly now, before i've had a chance
to unbind all this seaweed from my hair again, you careless human-hurricane,
aren't you sick of using my heart like a skipping stone over the water;
or are you only just as afraid as i am, of the tide turning again before
we have a chance to learn how to swim.
