This work is part of TAG: A Poeta Project. It is a response to Color in Suffering by Patrick Foran
“Color in Suffering– A response to Patrick Foran”
The quiet in the other heart
is not an accident of fire. Not
the sudden blue
marked with a wish
for water. You open
your mouth and we are
in a distant north
in another time
where I hold your face
until dusk spills a system
of starlings, until everyone comes
and goes without a word.
