Bus Valentine

The old crow coughs
like a myth it’s me
caught in another life
like drops of blood
on the snow I am
not the grail but I
love the grail-bearer
that one can begin
to see through
time’s gauzy curtains
the necessary architecture
and recurring rhythms there
from the back of the bus
from the next to last seat
holding love’s hand
