even in the city

even in the city
that never sleeps,
you and i will be
in separate worlds,
looking down, looking
inwards, looking away,
always away,
for a reason to be

between this world

between this world
and all the
others, there is
little to divide
us but
our minds

at sunset, portals

at sunset, portals
open up all across city
streets, curbside,
adjoining this world
with countless
others – so much
temptation

on the lunar

(for grandpa)

on the lunar
calendar, we
are celebrating
our birthdays
today, just one
world away
from each
other,
which feels
like multitudes,
on and off
the system
for counting
so many days
apart

every so often

every so often
we bump into the edges
of each other’s world

every morning

every morning
entire worlds dry
up in the span of
a second or
two.

every week
i water
your orchids
waiting for
a miraculous return
