you made a wish
and it came true
she is
your present
your possibilities
your answered prayer
path prepared; boston, ma: sfe 12/1/12 |
but your fear erupts and
in her
you see
your past
so you posture,
preventing progress
if you must linger
on that death
at least permit
her presence
to pacify
your precautions
your presumptions
your puncture
then perhaps
you will
prepare a path
where when your
'wishes come true' appear
they can proclaim
their potential
their pulse
their passion
their preciousness
your pleasure
and perhaps
in time
you
-precarious wounds and all-
will patch,
unleashing
potent character
pliability
perfection
peace
thanks to your (her)
perseverance
and maybe your (her)
participation?...
certainly your (her)
patience
because if you do
permit
this potential
then even
if
she passes
from your perspective,
her promise lives
and the
prosperity
of your wishes come true
will emerge more
prominent
than your
primal
pain
you made a wish
and it came true
pay attention.
