{sometimes i write things.}

i can see them as old
tell that i'm tired
bells are ringing
feet shuffle
to the back of the bus

once, phone calls were made
from such a transfer
and the ins and outs of love
left us still wanting
at arms length

we watch the transitions
over the river traveling
through the definitions of life
pleasurable moments
of relational quality.
the excitement of personhood
the delight of fondness
