Valentine Earth

I taste the salt rubbed
into the cracks in my skin
Imagine remembering
Slip forward on the surface of enormous waters
hold together beneath
Sunset reclines
silky blue cut open red
I might kill a flower for you but
I will grow a tree with my burning hands
Pickpocketed hearts speared with push pins on the wall
beating quietly through sleep
Maybe tomorrow your postcard from me will come in with
your newspaper
and your voice will read it to find me
Time uncaught will have us all soaked through
climbing over stones to reach the Sun
I am afraid sometimes of the vast consciousness
that is more solid than the planet world
mind over matter
I remember imagining
