cruise fog for lost woman
   on the sad bus with sad people
       lost myself without her
hopefully
                 a temporary thing
   this bus jerks to another stop
       still light in the early evening
         people shuffle past nowhere
to go on the sad bus
   with their bags and groceries
       look for her in strange faces

*

thirst for a sense               a sixth
                           resonance
   search for this feel which returns
             to feed in darkness
                             my lover's cold arm
               bending closer
                                         still morning charms
         dawn's blood touch warms me
   move away from the circle
                 move as dark light in the faint opening
               brings another day with its hunger
                                                     collapse
                               into shadows
                   an eyelid pierces
               a glimpse of movement
