stairs
Like eternal light touching ancient ground
his shadow appears to me.
Then his eyes are falling down at me,
it's summer and I'm standing in the rain.
His eye enamel touches my skin because
he knows I swear of tempera dirt all over my body.
He surrounds me like a cave and my heartbeat
becomes a heartbeat of a mountain.
As his wolf voice touches an ice crystal
love becomes the red juice stain on a child's T-shirt.
Perhaps that is how our fog gathers
in one place to have central gravitation.
''These stairs are too close to the sun,
it's a different world above the clouds, you know.'', I say.
''So surrender my friend, otherwise
we are both going to burn out.'', he whispers.

Maybe it's better to stay completely within
as fire hides in metal
as water hides in rock.
