holding it in

on the nth day of

on the nth day of
summer, we made a few
more discoveries,
hand in hand, arms
swinging towards
home, luck in our
steps. a new
Hedera helix hanging
planter finds its rhythm
alongside us, ready
to climb towards
the stars at our window

for everything whole,

there is as much

there is as much
volume
for holding on
as there is for
letting go. one
being more
visible than the
other, we
keep choosing
to go all in

seconds before flight,

we take turns holding

we take turns holding
the conversation like a
cat’s cradle string game –

you pinch these figures into
meaning, i hook, dip, and pull

you are on your way,

in flight, we become

in flight, we become
without language, for a brief
moment, molecules

rattling in their cellular
cages, till you take my hand

you held me

you held me
for as long
as i needed to be
held, and then
even longer, love
has a way
of perfecting
the beat

when held, our atoms

when held, our atoms
take on exponential
equations with relish,
shimmering and raised
to the n-th power.
the ink of tomorrow
pulses on each wet
page, and nobody is
looking to solve
the equations too soon
