Reruns
Sunday, November 21, 2010
Wouldn’t it be nice
if you were Hansel and I were Gretel
and we could follow a trail
Only without all the brother sister stuff
If you could lead me to me
and I could lead you to you
and there would be a great rejoicing and the
light, it would come; streaming through a pillar of soft
sound, crowded and cramped into a room
like too many people looking for a sunrise on a beach
you and I would struggle to keep
cool, and there would be a kind of plea-bargaining
a negotiation
Heads would roll and hearts would soar, there
would somehow be a gathered perception
an inclination of what should happen next
If I were your wife
we would settle without question
and linger in the notion of yours and his and hers and mine
But there is not a witch pressing a finger against a cage
and you have enough to eat
and I have enough to ponder
without wondering what spells
you might cast
without wondering
what stops and starts
might derail
the surety of your heart against mine.
