and do i contradict myself
no
i am the universe
yes
i contain multitudes
maybe
i need a little more little
and a lot more less

i am a body paragraph without a thesis
a run on sentence tired and panting
a constant conjunction hoping for more than or
a two sided sword missing a half
and you on the some days that don’t feel like days
but where you ask what you are
as though you are incomplete
and a final answer at the same time
even though you go on afterwards
meeting me on the street
finding the other half of my sword
presenting it with a smile
and finding out i have changed into a tooth pick
for i am a strawman
blown down by your breath

you don’t know
what love is
until
you don’t know
what love is
*
last time
was the first time
you said it wouldn’t
last much longer
which made me wonder
what took us so long
to start to end
