Memories and Potions

We meet,
mingle,
mesh or won’t,
marry or don’t,
mix with the angels
in their shadow spaces
to postulate
on the properties
and potions
of the elements.

We carry our memories
and meanings
loaded on our shoulders
as we trudge through time,
smiling and shaking,
always giving the earth
one more chance
to invite us to dance

with her.
