my thoughts swirl
upward with the swifts
to dart and spin
and hover
like flocks of
broken heartbeats
flutter
with the pulse of night
but you
are revelers on high
and sailors of the gloaming
in muted flight
you etch in poem
with reckless
winged filigree
your essays drifting
down to me
in syllables of hope
and boundaries fall
and burdens fly
and I unravel
to escape with you
in swifts of smoke
