ombre-locks come together, press close. The fondness incites itself/ Like night and day, / these best of friends: Elegant blush & Hooded Jet; complimentary contrast. Tresses swept back. The shoulderd-mane, wild with wind.

Telling it like it is,<br />

Staring off into <br />

[They share a private laugh]<br />

lean in close,<br />
to feel the joke.<br />

![Lost <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
in your looking-glass-windows, <br />
<br />
edges melt into themselves. <br />
<br />
<br />
Boundary lines fade, <br />
as an Iris becomes the sky<br />
tree bark,<br />
<br />
solid ground. <br />
<br />
You are the Earth I walk upon,<br />
my sense of Self. <br />
<br />
What is a chin,<br />
If not yours?<br />
<br />
My smile, too; <br />
[inextricable.] <br />
Yours.](https://photos.smugmug.com/Three-Friends-and-a-Camera/i-ZQg9F7K/0/3be748b2/Ti/first%203%20Friends%20NYC%204%20%202021%20_DSF8425%201-Ti.jpg)
