she is an artist
in making a bed
of pine needles
snowshoe hair soft
beckoning me
to lay with her
inhaling the warm sun
throughout our creature fabric
exhaling it through
our flared noses
under the towering
voyeuristic trees
embracing one another’s
inquisitive souls
our heat
burning as one
until the earth holds still
so for the first time
we lovers
see
who is who
assuring each other
of our existence                                                                                                            for that is what you wrote                                                                                          and I read                                                                                                                    after you were dead                                                                                                      and it haunts me

I place 26 letters from the English alphabet melded occasionally with Arabic numbers in sequences I enjoy while utilizing blank spaces and 14 punctuation marks between said letters or numbers to create expression. For example: Ingrid enjoys cotton candy, mathematics, feather-light kisses, removing wood splinters from soft feet, and whiskey with an e. One day she will die and be gone forever. The dream she loves is often smooth as black glass. Too many people are scared to live. Not Ingrid. Some days she wields a heavy maul, shattering the black glass touching her dream. Most of the atoms comprising Ingrid exploded from unstable high mass stars, billions of years ago. That makes her smile. Ingrid is the strongest, most beautiful, most alluring person in the universe - at least that's what David, thinks.
