Sleepy eyes
Tired is as
tired does
I think
or something like that anyway
Feathers
pearl in color and
soft
are comforting
when put inside crisp cotton
and covered in bold
pictures
perfect place to sleep

love after love
The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...
Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.
