I used to watch
the stars
wheel on their
grand ecliptic, tethered
and dragged on
the celestial rim:
the illusion of
their movement
did not free
them from it.
I used to watch
the shadows
on your
sleeping face, dream
chased by
dream, and imagine
I could unbind
the knight from
the mere.

Like that there is a parallel binding in the two stanzas, and yet the two stanzas are opposite light vs. dark.
