Beyond Valentines

Beyond our burning desires
beyond our passionate natures
beyond our personal preferences
beyond our particular convenience
beyond the seas of science
dotted with little islands of art
beyond the cloud over my shoulder
or the army of mountains coming up
momentarily on our left
even beyond our dearest wishes
out beyond Wednesday and Thursday
out there in the lost deserts of desire
love comes to graze
in the guise of a mourning dove
