"Empty Spaces"
The phone line between us
is long and thin and crosses
mountains
and I can imagine the shape
and position
of your body –
sitting, your head held in the curve
of the thumb and forefinger
of your left hand...
or maybe on your side,
in bed,
staring at the wall and trying to imagine
I'm behind you.
I reach out and place my hand
upon your hip.
