objectivity

i understand you must reinterpret

this world into yours

to bridge the distance between the planets

or just our arms

which could be hugging

but instead are supine as though from the first

and last instance of solely human flight

and stiffly cowardly

trying to close the space between

the single meaning and all of them

that made me sit and write

being into being

like a shadow dance before the show

that could be well attended though the director

has always been nervous and taken out the anxiety

on his wife

who was a lesbian anyways

who never told anyone

including herself on most days

for she has the conscious to mind

not losing her mind on what she has

which is him there drinking

fading

become a city from a boat in a sea

where shore meets shore

like a long extended laugh

that she will understand the joke to

once she can sit quiet

away

think about how her thirst

cannot be quenched by the water around

and reinterpret

what it has all been about
