saved from the movie of real 8/1/12

I don't want to be happy with you.

I don't want to be sad either.

I want to be with you,

not fighting, not exacting,

not adrenal, not in language

or spoken out loud.

I want the daydream

to have punctuation

like the face of a clock

but with the sweep hand

of wonderment.

I want the grains of sand

to sneak out

of the hourglass, unnoticed

without glory to their absence,

no concern

as if time had a curfew accent.

I want private reflections

to quickly do their business

and return to now,

not neither embarrassed nor amused

but dismissed

for a radiant presence

that fulfills itself.

I want the motors of ourselves

running, but as symphony.

We are these fire sticks

rubbing as us together

without motion as we lay.

We are both drowning

without resistance,

yet producing buoyancy

for us to breathe a balance

as ourselves alive.

There are no answers

for us to come upon

and then pray

with a sense of gratitude.

What we occasion

as our common mind

is simply served

as frames of celebration.

What seeks to be our rooted-ness

serves us as self-love shared

without outward broadcasts

or hidden behind accusations

feigning a mockery of blame.

We re-ignite as simply as

where and how the wind

becomes its own glory

and the night re-conceives of us

within and from the day.

Always we are

each other's moments

unraveling as passage per se.

Thoughtfulness becomes

as courteous turns,

curious as the constant roundness

of the illogical wheel of our lives,

rounding towards intentions

sharing in our behavioral forms.

There is our business

in the fumes and furies

all within our weave of silence.

All there is within us swims

through much of which

does not appear

to be an exchange

but our common mediums

are for love's action of loving.

And once again, yet ongoing,

we are saved

from the movie of real . . .
