White Valentine

An empty page like a well-made bed

I can’t resist but stretch

out on rolling like a cat

in dirt to maintain

his sleekness and indifference

a rage like an undone head

may find in here some reach

for warmth for silence sleep

the exhalation of the night

inner and outer away

angling through eyes and ears

having to trouble to dream

to turn over and hold

your body next to me.
