a poetry study

A.
How to get
to this place how
to get
here
you are
slow
dancing with me
I rest
my head
your fingers
ghost along
the bare
nape of my neck

B.
How to get to this place?
How to get here?
You are slow.
Dancing with me, I rest.
My head!
Your fingers!
Ghost along, the bare nape of my neck.

C.
How to?
Get to this place.
How to get?
Here you are, slow dancing
with me.
I rest my head.
Your fingers ghost along
the bare nape of my neck.

D.
How to get to this place, how to get here. How to get here, you. Here you are, slow dancing with me. Dancing with me—I rest. I rest my head, your fingers ghost along. Your fingers ghost along the bare nape of my neck.
