onto my kitchen table
and put one finger
where you are and
another where I am.

run my fingers through
every strand of your hair,
touch your lips and

there is a guide for judging scale:
every inch a hundred miles
full of roads and rivers and trees,
the guide a sharp reminder
that you are where you are
and I am where I am,
inches apart.
