Looking Back Long, Hard and SlowA Poem by NevilleLooking Back Long, Hard and Slow Even now, when I think back, long and hard and look
close enough I can still, just make out, each gentle rise
and the subsequent fall of those sun-kissed undulations
of hers .. As she did then shift, upon eventually waking, beneath
each of our cool off-white cotton sheets, those she
acquired from a stall on a market, in Egypt all those long,
hot and crazy summers ago .. Indeed, as welcome today, as was then, and as seemingly
new as seen through a handful of light, casually plucked
from an otherwise ploughed desert sky, as surely and true, as the
love we once shared .. © 2022 NevilleReviews
