Darkness Fails Again
let's begin with particulars, I said yes
and you asked me a question. then
you said yes and there was nothing
to demand. you said the box in your pocket
was a camera but now I know better.
the glimmer in your eyes
gives you away. away.
you, who have taught me how
everything is small but nothing
is little. you have given me
this smallness, its true
immensity. propounds.
dissimilarity is never
that obvious.
placing things into your hands,
you, the outside of you,
touching the outside of me,
my hands. you hold me.
there's a swirl of dark near the bottom
of the cup. my hands are full.
