In the dark room
Where the window is open
To summer
I watch the fireflies
Burn holes
Into the black
Flesh of night
Air
Thick as cigarette smoke
Lies yellow, heavy
In the bed with us
Did you know then,
How I went naked and alone
Through your unfamiliar house,
To the bathroom
And kneeling
Placed my face
My cheek tight
to tile
So cool
So black
And so white?
