(i am)
if i were slicing a mural
with every rubber-souled scuff mark
on your or someone elses
clean floor
if i were melting a painting
with every tear
evaporated into the air of an art gallery
or sunk into a movie theater cushion
if i were mixing a soundtrack
with the first note
of every question
every statement
of every no and yes
and amen
if i were keeping an archive
of every warm surface
every deep smoothness
every electric reflection
i glimpsed passing
if i was writing a poem
with the extra cradles
made from your brown arms
in embrace
it would all
every mural
every painting
every song
every library
every poem
every outfit
every outburst
every project
every event
every performance
every accident
every essay
every miracle
every sigh
would all be
dedicated
to you
and I am.
