Standing Next to You... Electric 

It has been more than
an hour
and much longer than a minute...
Since we brushed hands, passing through a doorway
Three days, give and/or take.

It had been even longer than that...
The last time electricity powered this bulb
Brighter than Tesla current, purple exploding grape
Combustion free juice, gentle wetware
Explicable science in delicious
Tethered silence

A chance often wells,
Even Ada swam in those pools
Love-laced between pond rock and still water

Yet every glass, soft breath blown or factory hard
is a craft
Nothing is less than it seems
