yes

 



 I could talk to you tonight like this mad silhouette is speaking to the dusk
 there are a thousand million stars weeping tonight
 I see wings emerging from old women pushing shopping carts on blistered pavement
 I see benevolent fingertips touching some kinda stressed out heart of a rich


  child
  do you know
  about
  the nests hidden in thickets?

Do you know about all the furies of ours    o    do you think we can figure this out…

This sublime life.

 This precious wandering.
 These awakened wings.
 These opened thighs.
 This heart that would pose as a tidepool .
 This heart that would dive from the sky into an open sea.
