***
strike a match
with that gentle touch of your
hand which holds my
heart agile and waiting
afloat long waking
Believing in the magic of
that unmatched and
matchless
unprecedented
inextinguishable
fire of your breath
applied to my cold cheeks
That irrational thrill in my
dreaming memory of a
“Safety Matches” box
I still cling to
at night
