Unexplored Frontiers
The reckoning
I will not be you and
you will not be me
dancing around
delayed address of our imbalances
serpentine slow slither wrapped around fragilities
in an attempt to blend in
When a fight to the death carries hints on the breeze
procrastination hedges bets
I do not want to shed blood and
you do not need the dry-cleaning bill
There is no way
around dark tangled unkempt sections
dense foliage of abandoned half selves.
Nothing gets left forever.
We start at edges
work our way in.
I don’t want endless search for connection and
you won’t accept less than full strength soul intoxication
I am full moon reign to attract all fluid
You are solstice sun not a solitary thing to prove
And we cannot know how this will end
We only know it has begun
