How many things
will I have to change
my mind about
in order to to become
a completely
new person?
Could a process
this mysterious
be undertaken gradually?
Will I resist it?
Would I have
had to begin it
already?
*
Wherever two or more
are gathered in my name...
Let us call that
brand of resolve
"focus,"
not "contraction."
Let's also call "pressure"
by it's first name:
"selection."
*
To have been
together then.
To one day be
together again.
in these kerneled
conversations,
are everything
we care about
when it comes
to forever.
