Lives intertwined
Two bodies
What was once new is now aged,
fine like wine and cheese.
Ev’ry day, two artists who
go on painting.

(In response to Maya Angelou’s “Passing Time” below.)
Passing Time
Your skin like dawn
Mine like musk
One paints the beginning
of a certain end.
The other, the end of a
sure beginning.
~Maya Angelou
