“The other night”
will be amazing
two weeks
or a month from now,
but today it’s only
a blue thread on the pillow
and an ache for more.
Marvelous time
that will not move too quickly
for fear of gently substituting
a too-eagerly desired nostalgia
for this necessary,
melancholy present, for
without today’s blues
how much less sweet
“the other night” will be
two weeks or a month
from now.
