are getting harder than
speaking to another person should
get
you know there is no
way I’ll ever let you read these words
so afraid to reveal my deepest flaw,
so sure just a chip in my wall
would give away my most
telling paradox

“there is nothing you can
tell me that will drive me away”
it’s not driving you away
that tightens my fists
it’s the proximity of minds
that makes me so
very unsure about the humans
that share this generation
I don’t want them close, God
forbid they get closer

but you are set on solving this puzzle
even though you know
the instant you have me figured out
the instant you cut to the
fiery core
“you love me!”(so he said, so long ago,
so breath-defying true)
you’ll never see me again
why must you insist
on stirring the silt that’s sat for years?
you’ll never see me again

You'll Never See Me Again

Dri...the first thing I loved was the "get" out in the middle of nowhere...the second thought I had was in response to your line, "you know there is no way I’ll ever let you read these words..." Sounds to me like he's well on the way to learning the language and not far from comprehending at least the essence...could be wrong...it happens a lot...

...you're right, though...it is scary...frightening...terrifying...so many people seem to be no deeper than a thin layer of dust...

...I've been away for a while and it was nice coming back to the dicotomous paradox, the poetry of Dri...poetry that is so light and so heavy, all at the same time...

...another intriguing creation...
