opting to reflect

our tiniest deviations,

all day, the rain falls

all day, the rain falls
in brooklyn like a fugue,
repeating the same
theme on its way
down – ledge, leaf,
rung, stoop,
ledge, leaf, rung,
stoop, ledge,
leaf, rung, stoop –
rubato-
ing and
accelerando-ing
together
with the ease of
a seasoned symphony

body in between time zones,

you and i reflect
one another, imperfectly,
like glass mosaics,

a shimmering geometry,
intricate in every shade

were there ever

were there ever
truly a time
when things
were that simple –

after everything
settles, we
somehow allow
the complexities

complex words to one

another like love, how it should
be, together forever

there is probably

there is probably
something
incomprehensibly
complex about the
way we
lean in,

ignoring
the parts that have
to do with
physics, but just
allowing sentiments
to weigh in
