Sans Explanation

You already know about

everything

I know about

 

and because you do I get

to get

lost without my long running

friend: that urge

to explain/destroy my own machinery

(I mean intrinsic mechanism)

or I mean

something else and betterer and more accurate and

Who am I without

the ceaseless explaining?

 

Who are you to come so

fully loaded

(like Herbie the ******* Love Bug)

?

 

(Ah) comes the balm of genuine curiosity.

I have been so long falsely

expert.

 

I am just beginning. Stupid

and frankly new.

Notes

a poet friend and I are writing bad poems back and forth to each other because we are both just entering the phase of "I think I'm in love" and this is a very good time to write shamelessly into the tremor
