Maps Were Not Needed

Maps were not needed to discover where we were.
The man who was speaking said he was a poet.

The very old woman mistrusted wind chimes.
When she spoke of dragons and angels, we applauded.

The laboratory test displayed numbers and letters I could not
         understand.
I drank large quantities of water and read my own notes.

In the darkness two faces appeared to be one.
In my arms you said that nothing could happen.

At other times you were simply present.
You had never gone away.
