meteor

“Meteor” by Maurice Sapiro

a meteor slashed

a brief gash

in the black

waxy skin

of the heavens

soft moon-silvered

droplets bled sweet

from the wound

dripping slowly

through starbreath

down onto my tongue

thus I tasted you

even before

you existed

From my books Pieces of Wine and Legacies (vol. 2)
