POETRY

by Vega Buchbinder

I love you

as a candle loves to shine over its limited field;

its rays reach for darkness to rope unto itself

for love and destruction.

careful

as you breathe

and run your finger through

'not to put it out

or I shall wander in darkness looking for another light.

if you do not want it

feed it some fuel

and pass it on.

Marge,

your hair brown and long for your age, freckled shoulders slumped soft breasts flattened with childrearing, you slip into the curves of the sofa and seem to cushion it,

yet your presence levers open the gates of ourselves.

You fill us with your silence gentle interest

as each of us laughs and plays in joyful acceptance.

You pass the joint unnoticed

though you've smoked a thousand times and participated in our stumbled reveries.

We've taken from you

given company and affection borrowed your money

fixed your air conditioner.

Yet who among us can touch you know your sorrows

share your experiences

Who can be your lover,

when we're all sisters and brothers?

Tell Them

You Saw Their Ad

in What She Wants

breasts covered

by mounds of clothing

in winter are gloves for hands to hold

"Take Back the Night"

we don't need another love poem

my hands would rather lift your shirt

to find their home

than push a pencil across barren paper without warmth or interesting places to stop

lifting your tee shirt now

there's only air swirling and tumbling forming words

which slide down your legs

and take their place on paper

into

four frag-

ments-

i reply:

there will rise from the street slums money-changers

who will sell light
