If I were Venus, and
you were the moon
I would likewise cross the sun
determined to reach you,
the arc of my resolve set.
Feet on fire.
Nothing quenches me but you.
I look forward to when poems by you appear. They’re always so concise…and FULL of meaning. I tend to “write long,” but wish I also had the ability to chisel a thought or feeling down, distill it to its elemental pieces. You do that SO WELL.
The smaller pieces are exactly why I created 20 Lines a Day (initially 20 Lines or Less) and it was to make myself write at least a little each day. (I don’t always attend to the “each day” part.)
They might appear elsewhere, though, if there is a thought I want to develop, or even if I borrow just a phrase for a longer piece that I might submit elsewhere for publication or competition, perhaps.
