Ariel Valentine

To cast one’s soul adrift
into a particular physical
configuration flawed
blueprint of a body
with that nobility
only twilight fathoms
those eyebrows and
perfect feet it almost
becomes mortal again
for a certain number of years
in a certain number of places
as one might pursue a lover
across continents lifetimes ruins
how little credit I gave you
when you were there all the time
