Rubber Band                       5/23/02

A floor apart

     feel him there

          want him here

Further apart

     longing intense

Attached together

     a rubber band between

Attached at the heart

     each other’s anchor

Energy exchange

     him in me, me in him

Rubber band gets thicker

     but more stretchable

Sickness, must be close

     rubber now steel

Sudden death

     stretched rubber band cut

Two ends snap back

     create total emptiness
