AND THEN…..
by Cheryl Hazell
And then he kissed me.
All up and down.
Blue to brown stares, pale to dark, species to species.
And then we waited,
Hushed in a printed meadow of blues and purples
As a goal was scored beyond our breaths.
And then he whispered that it’s all the same,
That before he knew me, he’d already known the game.
And then a silent hand replaced
The veil encasing us in ambient space.
