I Will... you will
@Uootem
I will talk with you
and you with I
in traversing circles...
spirals though time...
moving but not moving
for we are already there...
I will follow you anywhere
to all the places we search
and that this discussion takes us
each word directing the way
back to where we have been
and to where we are going.
I will wear you like skin
my favorite thing to do
it's all I'm good at.
you will paint me the clown
your favorite thing to do
for I've always been a fool for you.
I will burn and inspire
while you make your measure
from my crooked perspective.
You will make me long to travel
in a distant ancient place
far away from where I stand today.
I will make you aware that I have fallen
for only you can help me
unravel what is inside myself.
I will undo my mask
through necessity
and challenge.
You will make me able to feel
what I have always felt
while I share with you my poet's work.
I will offer you all the
intangibles and the unseen(s)
that perhaps are as much yours as mine.
I will find you in the quiet of night
when I thought I was ready for sleep
You will make me think I am forgetting something crucial
that I will never be able to forget
for you are a puzzle
and I will be nothing less than a missing piece.
