Sonnet XXXXXI...on the road to Tetlapayac

J. E. Dorsey


It is raining here in my heart, cascading teardrops
But through the clouds of your fading memory
There are bright stars looking down upon us by the millions
O weeping sky - my sadness is reaching out to your black countenance

Searching for your vanished kisses in the wet heavens
O love, it is you clinging to my bones aching
And in your liquid eyes of tears immeasurable loss

I am drowning, O suffocation of water&air filling lungs inhalations

I am immersed completely - where the deep blue sea
becomes the dark night - no longer breathing
Surrounded by tiny hungry fishes in a seething frenzy
Eating flesh and blood - their tiny bubbles exploding

My love, here is the longing dark sky of your missing body
Only the moving head lights show the way to loving you.
