Our eyes blink
in time to the beat of a song
playing on a old radio with
one dusty mesh fabric eye,
each note is a strand of
hair woven in Morse Code
a hand wrapping on on
a window sill,
two thoughts that converge
somewhere between
two wounded glances,
two pint glasses
on an empty bar,
in a tavern which exists
only in the meat of night,
to a mood set by the somber,
echoing cries of two coyotes
stranded across a canyon of stars.
