These are our lovers and friends, they switch around, resolve
scooped out heart refilled and now it works great
passes through forests of clothes, down the trap door
splat out in the cellar, our lovers down there shelving,
"hello!" "it's so nice to see you this way"
"and love you new!"Oh, I blush, I do, "I love you!" and
we all laugh and laugh and laugh, how wise, how well we know
"you knew?" I did and "oh, you know me" and then a little hiccup
somewhere stomach-wards, "Does this mean I meant something?"
and for a moment focus resolution's lost but then, we are friends
the warmth of "former" beats the "not-quite" present, we talk
now we can talk and "you know me" means, "know me, now
that you can."
