he had nothing to hide
no
interstellar entanglements
no
comets on the side
my
heart once in fragments
magnetized
wholesome in unity
Peace
settled with mirth
as
joy replaced sorrow
on
wings I flew
without
thought for the morrow
shunned
fear as laughter grew
shameless
in her rebirth
until
thoughts of love arose darker
like
those of Dorothy Parker
