White light, clear evening

Always forwards with preparation

Except this time to give chance its chance

Unexpected, the floodlit clock tower

The touch of hand on hand


In such a rush to build a past

To look forwards with the thought of looking

For flashbacks in the future, to have a view of a memory of now

How; wait, spare this moment from the cobwebs


Feel skin pressed hard against skin

Teeth bite hard into necks and into softer navels

Bodies clenched tight

In fear of misunderstanding we risk all


But do not call it desperation

Fall instead towards, or into deeper love

Tall towers, careful hands, warm breezes

Admire the ever longer, ever lighter views
