Kissing Dragons (Harp Visions)

Your brow looks like two mystical dragons kissing

The hairs undulating stiffly

Under the sticky blue of black bridges

Giant oaks and blue China poetry skies before our house

And tend to be away

I spent half a day

Driving around aimless

Me and my dream looking for a way back to myself

I lie on a giant slab of wood

Mosquitoes buzz on my ankles

I squint to the sun

All I can do is think about you

And your aimless wiggling and curiosity and fascination

Waves my heartstrings

New York bars, for nightlife

My eyes follow the pattern of the bark

Like streams flowing to the ocean

And I think of you sitting up there in that thick branch

Your slender little girl lеgs tangling down, looking at me quizzically

With those long-lashed еyes

Framed by those swelling kissing dragons

"Come on, mommy", you say

Or maybe you just saw [?]

Like you've been greater right from the start

And I lift my tired tender body from the slab of wood

Jumped up to join you

I missed you the whole time
