Cellophane from The Keeper by Aerhart

This missing is a distant place
Give me grace, I do stick to myself
Took these words from the shelf
Saved you something you can use
Turned a muse into a mood

Tight as I hold
Loosely undone
Clear as I come
Wish we were one

Ecstatic in the stretch of the cellophane
Creases in the way you moved
Pulled along and then alone
That was me before the tear

(I know how far I should go)
Tight as I hold
(I know how far I should go)
Loosely undone
(I know how far I should go)
Clear as I come
(I know how far I should go)
Wish we were one

Where matter becomes meaning
I have much to say
Liminal in every way

Tight as I hold
Slowly undone
Clear as I come
Wish we were one

Wrap around me, precious thing
(gave you this poem)
Put me on to take me off
(Left you alone)
Like a silk will cling the leg
(Clear as I come)
Put me on
(Wish we were one)
