\"glitter-image\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I, for many years<\/p>\n

Gleaned hope<\/p>\n

From the glitter<\/p>\n

In the backs<\/p>\n

Of your eyes<\/p>\n

I wrapped your joy<\/p>\n

Around the insides<\/p>\n

Of my wrists<\/p>\n

And pioneered my way<\/p>\n

Through life<\/p>\n

With books and shovels,<\/p>\n

With tears and shooting stars,<\/p>\n

With your tiny fingers<\/p>\n

Tugging on the hem<\/p>\n

Of my favorite dress<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I was<\/p>\n

Parked alone<\/p>\n

On the hallway floor<\/p>\n

Folding your jeans neatly<\/p>\n

By the outside curve<\/p>\n

Of my left knee<\/p>\n

When my head<\/p>\n

Let the sting drop<\/p>\n

In<\/p>\n

To sear through me<\/p>\n

Like a river<\/p>\n

Of<\/p>\n

Misspent prosperity<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I had lost<\/p>\n

You<\/p>\n

To some mad chase<\/p>\n

A pair of dreams seceded,<\/p>\n

A parting of disjointed souls<\/p>\n

Both<\/p>\n

Snagging on the core<\/p>\n

Of a haggard old tree<\/p>\n

Swaying in the winds<\/p>\n

Of what was never to be<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My faith shacked up<\/p>\n

With a younger girl<\/p>\n

And<\/p>\n

Your silly little hands<\/p>\n

Were not the hands I remembered;<\/p>\n

But the map of man<\/p>\n

I pushed out<\/p>\n

Into the world<\/p>\n

A little before,<\/p>\n

Not your time,<\/p>\n

But<\/p>\n

My<\/p>\n
