Wellington Harbour Day

Anatomy of a One Night Stand

The curtain fills with sea swept air
And floats with slow curls in to your
room
Tom Burnetts
Framed
Hung
Cut
Adorn your wall

Beyond the deck
seas sway gently
a view for a while

I watch you sleeping
with your salt and pepper hair
and it is
in this golden light
That I realise I have
nothing you
ever wanted me for

I wished I could be with you
forever
on Wellington Harbour Day
