I should be thinking about you
but I am thinking
about inevitabilities.
Like how my dog's life will end before mine.
And how my heart isn't even beating half the time.
Maybe it would be better to relax our grip.
take our eyes from the sky
feel the string slip
There's biology and there's sociology and there's
plenty
of other people out there, man.
and
We'll pop
either way
or deflate
someday.
