LONGER JAWS

Dab  lightly
The letters from
the frosty windowpane,
to gauge
the measure of love
breath to breath

Many facts
Remain unknown
To a face in the mist,
Still silent birthmark
Choose oneness
By every streak of finger mark

I withhold luxury
Life after life
To quarry upon
The golden mines;
Some more dead have risen up
To read your script by longer jaws
