Clouds

The taste of clouds,
damp,
yearning for those who have gone by,
wanting those who are yet to come,
unforgettable,
suspended,
injured,
insistent and inevitable,
a unique drop of a disappeared world
and a world yet to appear,
a globe quivering,
the heavens dissolving,
a complicity,
a deep agreement,
a fidelity,
we hold on,
we implore,
Leave me, but do not go.”
