Terminals
I fall for you but then I don't
want to call you but I won't
how contrary can I be?
it's six of one and one for all
and still I want to fall
but don't.
and so
I stay in the frying pan
warm on the fire
a starling wasting time
perching on the wire
I should fire a warning shot
across her bows
but
how's she going to react?
this is why I can't attract
I just subtract when I should add
I fall again
it's not so bad.
