a red string
the wind blows
you go away
and I feel the tug
it flows
between our feet
up our calves
our thighs
crotch,
abdominals
and into my heart.
stringed through it
and tied with laces
like me
peering through the hole of the eye of a needle
looking for another in another reality.
we are linked

silenced forever
morning dewed sunray
rainbowed spectrums
refracting from those
motionless webbed wings.
