Red Carpet




This red carpet that we may lie upon
Little fiery waves to delineate our beyond
Top to bottom and side to side
If we could get depth we could confide
Our love! our hate! our apathy! our awe!
But we’re bound to the surface, fettered by law
No abyss no crevice no hidden nook
no submerged heart within which we might look
for this and that and other lovely things
for the key that is why, a caged bird sings
dig for love divers, part the waves
in the wake we’ll say goodbye to ruts posing as days
together we’ll jump and know not where we’ll land
but together we’ll be, hand in hand
a different place, different people, different day
on this red carpet we lovers lay
