If it Had a Name~ By Ken Wallace

There’s something shaky in the way we move. 
I can’t tell if it’s shifting foundation or the malleable feel of your person. 

I can’t ever really tell when we meet if it’s in person.
The feel of your skin is a smooth as the flow of affected words read from long awaited
correspondence.

Dull still even if the words vibrate against my skin.
I feel as if I am waiting for your return even if I have your perfumed neck pressed against
my nose you are still a lingering scent.
I wonder and wander when it’s just me.
I know it must be. (c.103)
