With Or Without Awareness Valentine

I am trying to marry one
awareness to another slowly
or at least to introduce them
to one another gradually
like one of those stretch
bracelets of lapis stones
one rubbing up against
another on your wrist
the way each stone
closes off with its flecks
of gold inside each deep
thalo sky could be dawn
could be sun going down
I am trying to convince myself
of one awareness at a time
and can’t imagine how
they’ve come apart.
