Star Gazing

Last night I watched

The stars,

The hard glimmer

In space,

A touch of light

Against your face,

Against the taste

Of me...

Felt my pulse race,

A meteor

In veins

Rushing under skin,

Sore, worn against

The hood of a car.

Restless, ajar,

Almost opened,

Like the universe

Displayed.

Orion's Belt

Hanging around my neck

Melts

A fire in my gut,

Reflected wet,

Where Castor and Pollux

Pulse and burn.

A Dorman
