The Morning Reading: "my face anyone's face"

From Break the Glass, the new collection by poet Jean Valentine:

Even All Night Long

Even all night long while
the night train

pulls me on in my dream
like a needle

Even then, down in my bed
my hand across the sheet

anyone's hand
my face anyone's face

are held
and kissed

the water
the child

the friend
unlost.
