Abandon


by Jerry Ratch


 

They left the breath of their souls

upon the lips of others

and jumped in with all abandon

 

They felt the winds on their skin

as the heart flew by them

on its way into the lost nature of time

 

You could hear them leaping from

the edges of inner space

and the surprise, almost surprise

 

as the breath rushed through them

like an unknown wind among hot

feathery points of the stars
