even in this crowded room
it was the type of gaze that filled the air
between them,
it swerved the corners of reality
with tangibility –
he felt it’s whispers wrap the shoulders of his fears
and write a message in the atmosphere
for him to see
the invitation that she
painted there,
in silken threads of space
that she pulled and interlaced with gravity,
electricity,
a reveal of fortune-cookie
destiny,
until it was a gaze he had to meet

Quite superb my blogging comrade
An edge of quirky on a tangible situation
“To her he looked a way to say it all
She had a body and no shovel
He had both and asked if she needed
She agreed they should never meet again
After he dug her a hole, got a morning coffee and bought her fresh bagels
And when the police asked why they got rid of the shovel
To them it was as close to a wedding ring as each could bare”

I believe it was destiny that once told me, “I am the mass occupied per unit volume by a body.” Or maybe it was density, I don’t know, I keep mixing up names.
