Here, You Are

You are here as much
   as I can make you
stiffening incantations erecting
   your feral presence
holy ghost apparition slithering along
   the ceiling, mind the fan
shed your skin in hot sheets coming
iridescent grinner
whisper into this lost ear and grip me
tight tight
crux in contour no mathematic
   formula has solved
driven to abyss
   by your opaline chaos

y'all know this madness
a breeze, a kiss
so tight in knots imagining something more than
   the gentle stirring of a Spring wind
if for prayer
   if for wish
      if for wanting
you are here as much as I can
   make you

yet
   you are still not here.
