across the bay

a train moves towards the night
towards somewhere, towards the city
across the bay

a train moves towards somewhere
towards the night, towards a heart

    towards the city
       across the bay

                 click clack

         click clack
      click clack

     towards the city, towards somewhere
     a heart moves towards the bay
     in a train, in the night
                                  click           clack

                                    across the bay

                  click               clack
                  click        clack
                       click clack
           
          a train moves, a heart moves
          across the bay, towards the night
          towards the city;     click

           clack,            to       a  heart
                            click  clack                       
                                                somewhere;
                                                                          across the bay

between where

Bill Taylor Photography

it is a short space between here
and where I have been
i have earned tenure
unlike any ladder I have climbed
or desert held palmed
smooth...
oasis beheld on the other side of glass
and i will return - in any return
to then -
places easily set
on recall, retrievable
