sometimes we start in that small personal
flowering in a shallow moment

sometimes we dig deeper, delve, fall headlong
into something further, not just inevitable

the more we consider, the more we sometimes lose,
the butterflies in stomach can be explained away

the tremour of handshakes circumvent to
the original purpose of blackflies & bees

the window-washers element is clear, the
man w/ the melons & goose-neckt lamp

it follows that in so, a trickle-down effect
of teardrops never get this far
