o aphrodite!
does passion matter more
than passion's object?
i go there
once in a while
when the world closes in
(as worlds
are sometimes wont to do)
throw open the door
let up the blinds
(smile)
unaccustomed light
a squared path through the dust
(circumspect cobwebs)
demolishing
the demon darkness
knowing again
this place
(safely extant)
(you me we us)
(might
maybe could)
(aren't)
in my heart
