here is where i place my brain, feet adjacent, my shoulders are

somewhere close by

 

here are connections that do not amount to constellations, except when i see the sun

 

i say thank you

 

what to become of kisses that pack a wound, that do not shoot 

or surprise like stars. i only

make a wish when i say goodbye. i only

sleep when i count myself to a whole, except

when i find my heart

 

i say thank you
