i was the night by Jonathan Hine

.

i was in the night

.

in the calm of

vaporous street lights

gliding down the whorl of febonacci petals

i wandered then, my eyes to

the tired old streets joined with the neon

in her hair in the alley into the night, laughing

she was before me

and i seemed to see the fairly radiant

outline who once across my

distant dreams of childhood passed letting

her unclasped hands

open torrents of falling stars

rain down in a

sea of gentle fire

.

Jonathan Hine has been sporadically published in the underground lit. scene over the years. His work has recently appeared in Dissident Voice, Academy of the Heart and Mind, Under the Bleachers, Duane’s PoeTree and Horror Sleaze Trash. He has forthcoming poetry in Cajun Mutt Press.
