her life and my art

"her life and my art"

her life had none of her art
and her art had little life.

but her life was nonetheless
a brush fire beside a wishing well
underneath a loud overpass
where poets roast each other
on a winter's solstice
caught forever in Saturn Return
never to see daylight again

and that vision of her life is my art
so we are even and thankful to have each other.
