In 2009 the poet wrote this piece in honor of memories and fantasies "in the past and yet to come".
-----
flesh to flesh
we mesh
very well
perhaps no coincidence
that in the present tense
and present tensions
we make gifts of our lifting spirits
lovers hovering
over a great descent
and, in our indecent indescension,
we find no reason to fall
just to release
with a hungry, primal peace,
a fitting merge to purge
our urges to forswear love
flesh to flesh
we mesh
very well
