Poetry: In the Distance

In the Distance
 


Closeness
Connectivity
A sliding scale of
De-evolutionary
Experience

Words expressed
Claiming

Desire
Need
Want

To come together
Be something other
Than one against each other

I snicker and laugh
At the charade
The obvious division
In what they say
Versus what they mean

They are comfortable where they are at
But they do not want it to seem
That they don’t want to be close

It is like a helicopter
Hovering 15 feet off the ground
High enough to jump
But high enough to
Get killed

In this kill zone
Is where relations lay
Where the minefields
Reside

It is my choice
To attempt to navigate
Get blown up
Or say no thank you

Distance
The necessary piece of
Relationships and dating
