After the shutter releases,

I want you in the multiple,

in the glacial carriage,

in the snake cloister,

in the closet full

of guitars and stomped hay,

in the exhalation of others,

all swaying with love, but changing midway

through the words

I address to you, my hand

pressed to yours visibly

much paler

than before,
