original poem included background image

tibetan sixties

hungry for the breath of breathed smoke
and daylight between my eyes

I wheezed your name
it was enough

from the Everest of my desire
a lama blew loudly

and
unnecessarily

because you came you smiled you condescended you
spoke ironically

anyway
and the last curling whisp from your cigarette

mattered as much
as its ash did
