there is no more than this

a sullen memory and a haunted kiss

a love of long too long ago

that lingers in some infinity

will I still be too much a part

of my old soul or will there be

a detachment that will confirm

any foolishness I've felt?

haunted goddess you and I

are one and the same in our fates

all is contingent on the Ineffable

and the Ineffable is a name for the unnameable

but you and I have our names

and a sullen memory and a haunted kiss...
