24-hour togetherness

Bed Politics

You with your space, your grace.
Your sleeplessness stops me.
You cannot be hugged.

I offer love from two inches away.

*****************************************

In this moment together, let us delight in each other.

I am sorry for practicing on you. You are here with me now, and I learn from being with you. You too practice on me.

If I have offended your spirit in any way, I apologize. I could not help it.

The angels cheer because we’re together

And so between 11 and 11:30
Almost like an after thought
We slipped into our life together.

I like that the world failed to
Stop in its tracks
But instead the stars gleamed

We became us.

Without the hoopla,
Our constellation as important
As the others in our personal skies

You are the answer to my
Inborn territoriality; you
Who was already you long ago.

You whom I love now.
