CLUSTER OF LOVE.

The components
Of a supernova
Coalesced
And blessed my life with him,

And as he
Passes
Days and weeks
His disparate features

Gather closer
And toast
The chemistry
That brings him to me;

The process
That sifts the best
From the mess of man
And jams it together,

So that a fragment
From here,
And a phrase from there
Slowly grow

Into a whole soul,
Whose reason
Continues to be seasoned
By time

So that when next year
Arrives
There’ll be an even keener
Being.
