I dreamed, or, maybe
Memories
Kissing all the freckles on your body
one by one by one
As I was when I was younger
so much bigger
Naming every star above me one by one
Beneath me
In the bed were shells, sharp
Cast off from wherever days go to lie down
And the smell of gunpowder
Livid in my mind
Maybe molting
Primed, like cicadas song
And all of it is music on the sheet counting
one by one by one
