The Size of It

Look, he said, leaning across
discoloured silence, the lack
of light burying his words.
Don’t you see?

Her eyes tried the volume of it:
bass notes she couldn’t grasp,
the straining treble fluttering
up to a veil of cloud.

The creature might be love.
Or something entirely different.

D A Prince
