How can you add dates 
to a calendar

we share? A boxed future 

in numbers and far away 
places. Pushing a 
swing somewhere with treetops

aching and heavy with the 
wind.  Do you 
see us? Hands clasped and

clutched in the tight space

between our touching

thighs, resting on forgiving ground 

littered with dead things, damp
and leaking rot.  
A call that you did not

hear before. 

I cannot see 
in front of 
my own eyelash.
