smooth and rough strokes
my morals hardly showing
astrologer warming hearts
rural memories leaving without stamps
preliminary written while young still crawling on knees
passionately for you
the real addressee
 this truth of ours that turtles so steadily
anxiously like long sleeved branches free with breeze
detailing the hyphens behind our name
our similar birth understanding so delicately
for the mossy fibers beneath this love that canvases so beautifully
