Wind Song

by Alisa Js

I could have gathered you like the mist
on a very fine day when the clouds
wanted to take a momentary leave,
let me stay
just a little while longer,
I promise to do no harm ...

have I reached out too near
to the start of the matter
in my willingness to be somewhat transparent,
without crossing the boundaries
we all know lay so near,
there on the side line
glaring.
why
can't we simply express
our desired intoxication
without recrimination
and fear,
of the response
or lack thereof
perhaps this is the real reason
for lingering
glimpses
while catching a movie
on speed dial

wish on the wind
a serious tune,
cry to the moon
we lose ...
