The History of the Map

The history of the map

For ages we have journeyed Agnes, and for what?

To turn brown and lined like the thing we follow?

Don’t cry Agnes.

It was-

I was-

**** it, Agnes!

Let me speak, as we once did, of parts unseen

Experiences not shared

Yet then shared in the telling

Then bounded

Only to find

That together it was a read over

Having nothing to express

Together.

Together we are now.

that’s what we asked.

The joys in the parting?

What use is for one a wallowing, then?

Here take the map Agnes.

Let’s-

Yes, it was good, wasn’t it?
