Nothing Is Easy, When It Seems Easy

 

In essence—each is responsible; in touch—each is a whisper. In feeling you the earth in rain the fall of castles, more citadels under siege; like location is a riddle, or needing to know isn’t of self-portrait, too much patience in terrors; as died a wolf, to arise a wolverine, much polite devil-may-care.

Enough with innocence; made powerful, earned treasure, secured spaces;

You dream differently. You know subtle & sudden reality. Liking you is easy; you know the human agenda, the human psyche. I just have issue with you. In confrontation the ideal was struck—It was once so naïve, thus, so innocent, in art, so delectable.

            Time will reveal us. No matter the force, one should behave accordingly.

            This isn’t easy to adhere to.
