benjamin.
i see what i want. it's right
in front of me, but somehow
i'm barred from it.
how did you do that so quick?
it calls me. i think it's my
fruitless search for purpose
clouded by –– uncertainty?
i could never do that. i'm just not musical.
everything i say has
the sound of recurrent avoidance.
can you play hide-and-seek
with yourself forever?
see? this is why i think you should be a teacher.
i float on, careening through each day
never really knowing where i'm headed.
maybe one day i'll make a difference.
i learn so much from you every day.
you have no idea.
Knowing con(text) here is helpful in making my love this one. Good work both of you.
