my version of promise

today is a smooth Italian
glove; I swim in a pond
of opera

and invoke the names
of your foreign love;

my cities are forgotten.

if you agree
to meet me at a river mouth,
we could play
rat and raft;

we could hold fast
for three pretty moments;
no one needs to disappear.
your family
is safe with me.
