“Another Soulmate Featurette”

letting nature unfold between us
dynamite kisses
scratch against the moon
sing the haunting tune
 that rains in my dreams
reassuring that it’s ok to
  sleep through the nightmare
cos I’ll be blanketed by the sun soon
create imaginary visions
that flutter inside a twilight mist
unsure if it’s night or day
parading down the lonely street
featuring my own block of clay
scratched to some kind of completeness
completely different but standing
parallel to yours, a burnt beauty
see horses running around the sun
 and say how we want to ride each one
my right hand, your left to balance
as we stand on slow growing ivy
rising to the sky
