leaves of preydator

leaves of thought

thoughts of prey/predator

imagining the beginning the end

and some time for an in between.

if i said "i love you" one more time

could we change our minds?

would a difference be made

the second i felt the lonelies

creeping up my back and into

my unsuspecting heart?

swan dive--up and out over the simple

waves. the choice is crucial--

drill for speculations, live in vulnerability,

carpe diem until our diem can no longer carpe

or

swing in that soft hammock that life offered us.

listen closely to the words spoken in our ears,

examine, place time neatly in our pockets.

collect options like figurines on a shelf

fall fall apart

one to two

if only to travel the

road less travelled

and the beaten, reliable

path. oh life, you simple silly life,

how can i be expected to

get you right?
