dear reader,
imagine
all the ways
that two people
can move together
in tandem alongside
leap frogging
backtoback, bellytobelly, backtoback
imagine the way of
ego tripping
igniting a fire
sucking all the oxygen out
to feed the flame
being in a state of bliss
unaware
in your own
and ::tripp::
you’re in an argument
an altercation
someone is angry
being in a fight
suddenly
having
a fight
all of a sudden
taking others’ actions personally
projecting self onto anOther
i remember having to be known
i remember manically force feeding
my narrative
to anyone who would listen
i remember manically speaking
(imagine the way of speaking)
i remember the last person who i really spoke with
and why
i remember why i spoke with them
i remember speaking
as yellowing leaves,
as the blue sky ignited,
