Cicero We embrace under my big comforter
as our fingers find each other in the darkness.
The television flickers, rim-lighting your face softly, exquisitely.
Your eyelashes catch the moonlight –
the silent blinking could put me to sleep.

closing like sheep over fences.

Your heart beats to a rhythm of kindness,
keeping mine in tempo. I could write
a symphony to your beat
(if I had the music in my pen).

You had me athello.’”
