let me breathe my last
breath into your mouth       hold me
close, still at the end

waking from a dream
you are there                     we are still here
and breathing resumes

yet a contented smile
inhabits my Soul

answered with Great love

without my glasses
people become one unique
feature in a haze

she has long blond hair
she has a very round butt
i don’t know their names

don’t know their faces
i know the smell of their sweat
their ujayi breath

self to an exorcism
of my own demons

Frustration while jumping through
Utility hoops
