kerry he wrote:

(if you still care enough
to read my letters)
do you remember yesterday
when we were on the edge of any love poem
we found reassuring? The calculus in your eyes
emerged after nightly readings, a curvature
that never seemed to recede far enough away
from dilated eyesight. But what thirsty
zeros we are tonight for saying good-bye
and now the mad moon burns
a nasty migraine into me. Oh,
I’m asking questions to all the ripples in your lips:
Is division possible if we’re both zeros! What
do you really mean when you say ice is too cold?
Are there questions for me? I’m awake
but the ink is running low. Am I strolling
through supermarkets in my mind? Are you a child
with too many tangerines in your hands? Yes
and No, but you’re among lost fruits—the
kiwis, the cantaloupes, the apricots—ripe and precise
like the ending of a love poem I have tried
but failed to write for you, and
I thought I would also tell you about the produce
Boys, how they schedule their breaks around you while
you slice into talks of frozen yogurt and orange sherbet.
That said, if you are still reading this,
tomorrow afternoon awaits us. I will be in the mood
for frozen yogurt or orange sherbet.
Or do you want to walk outside the art
museum at 3 AM and dream of owning Picasso
originals? The streetlights will cast huge, funky,
unattainable shadows and it will be a lovely lonely.
Cops will siren by with their startling red and blue,
a perfect voice for the darkness. They will think
we are criminals, but we will only be electric fruit.
And even though we don’t know the difference
between a tangerine and a tangelo,
there is a softness to the way your young hands
are unfolding this letter, an inexperience
to the way your hair is cradling
the sides of it. I will feel a little less
regret, a little less empty
if there is any chance
you are whispering the words to yourself
to let me know tomorrow
we will feel so
sublime. We will feel
so sincere.
