My love endures forever…

My love endures forever—
I barely remember,
I barely remember
Mind lushed in lotus flowers
And the flesh of December;
We gouged the eye of the hours,
From disaster to disaster.
My love endures forever—
I barely remember,
I barely remember
Blue eyes…I hang back
From the roots of the gunwale
Darker than ever. A lilac cataract,
Salt beading over your breasts, sundown pale
My love endures forever—
I barely remember,
I barely remember
Neither this nor that. God is
The place where I don’t remember the rest.
The word the outline the eclipse:
A horse whipped over and over, again and again.
I barely remember—
My love endures forever.
I barely remember—
Forced up the blank throat of my wilderness
You are only You when all is lost. Tenderness braved and bowed and broke apart—
Our love endures forever.
I barely remember,

From the roots of the gunwale
Darker than ever. A lilac cataract,
