lights never seen

gun lake cold and twinkling
new stars older than the
imagination of millennia
our constellation taking shape
around a beautiful tall boy
tender connecting with eyes
closed    feet aching    sides stitched
double and dancing and meeting
and dancing and meeting and dancing
until the night is full of train
sounds again and the surface
of the sky quietly unfolds
to share lights never seen before
