strong as the wind

Poetry

armies of tattooed arms

         in black and white

stretching down and across the street

         on their sleek bikes

         so free

         so happy

         so wonderful



and I long to go with them

         I long to travel

the length of this continent

    and further

    to Paris

       Milan

       Rome

        London

       Venice

       Athens



and to you:

         most of all, to you.

where your arms are dark and strong

strong as the winds of a storm.

dark with the touch of the sun

sun-kissed lips, that I want to kiss.



why should the sun have what I cannot?



and as they ride away

         my heart rides with them

flying free.

flying solo.

flying to you.



but i remain behind, dreaming



(i can do no more.)
