In a big circular banquet
Veuve Clicquot
Mussels
Escargot
Lobster salad
Crab cocktail
2 dozen oysters, 1 dozen beau soliel, 1 dozen blue point
hands touching across the table

we like the same things…
some parts
inter-changeable
our alchemy
with it's wild
potentials of
summation
and
cancellation….

More then I ever imagined

I watch him show his ID and walk through the metal detector
He moves out of site, but I keep watching anyway.
And I keep watching the whole next day, watching over and over
Everything that happened.
