The Accidental Conversation.


We collect eggs,

to watch them hatch outside

of the basket.


We watch clocks,

and wonder what it is,

that we don't want.


We let the slipperiness of spring,

get into us

and out of us---


All over us

and somehow,

away from us.


It's as natural as

the shadow over the moon-

It's as natural as

passing of noon-

It's as natural

as negotiating a release-

It's as natural

as forging a lease.


it's as unnatural as wanting to turn off,

by being turned on.


Your nature,

is your nature,

and my nature,

is my nature-


and the silence,

is now,

an answer.


There were 3 words;

the way we were,

and the way,

we wanted to see ourselves.
