Essence

She was the presence of a woman and he was the concept of a man

in fantasies and dreamscapes they fulfilled the faceless roles of love

in explosions of tears and delight they held each other

even as their paint washed away

their colours and textures swirling and singing and melting into rainwater

dirty but proud

a mighty river flowing through the gutter
