Let go of reins slipping like memories
To be someone else’s dejavu
Cigarettes in her purse that nobody knows about
Clenching her teeth when she sleeps
Uneasy in the crowds and alone
She looks up at the sky
Thinking she sees heaven above
Wondering where all the angels hide
Behind those dark clouds she nods to the west
Where the storms come down from the mountains
Following the river to the sea
She feels the cool wet sand on bare feet
Looking out across the Atlantic longingly
She knows the sound of his voice
Calling her, calling her, calling her to him
She longs for the feel of his touch
Let go of the here and now
She tries to catch a rainbow
As he clicks each frame of her journey
Keeping her in focus as she passes by
Shoulders brush against each other
But they cannot move their tongues to say hello
So they never really meet

Merry, another well contructed, thought-provoking post. I especially loved the last two lines.
Your poems traverse the visceral to the virtual, but where is it all anyway, if not just inside our head? Visions of Marilyn Monroe and her photoshoots on Zuma beach, don't know why. Maybe that's the point.
