night skies of fleeting feelings
staying up into the wee hours
because I don't want to wake up
and have this feeling be gone by morning.
Making maps of backyard memories
and all the pain in my body.
The various places where I have felt
how special it is to love.
In my hips, my head, my heart, my toes.
I will show you this map one day
if you have not already
come to know it.
