NEON |
For a time I lived with you
in suntime;
came in from the darkness.
I was a night creature even then-
looking for dark excitements
a longwhiskered cat stalking
walking my solitary walk on the wildside
looking into deep shadows and neon lights
In your eyes I was an argonaut
a seeker after sunlight
We ran sidebyside through fields of wondergreen
in love with each other and our bright days.
Perhaps we knew even then
that the night had to come
that I would hear the sad and lonely call
of neon lights and asphalt.
