last night i dreamed
the longest dream i’ve ever dreamed
i smeared your face across mars all the way
to venus, you glitter,  Who knew?

you were a perfect star
an incandescent beam illuminating
emasculating,
imagine—

does your tongue still dampen
when i tap your shoulder
is it always an accident? my zip—per is
can we move over to the lef—

i smeared your face across the galaxy
but each day you became
more
and more

like smoke

when he disperses into the air
he still needs to sit— settle somewhere

last night i dreamed
the shortest dream i’d ever dreamed
it was simple
you weren’t in it
