Passing pleasures, surer gains,
fragmentary souls
love as an agent caught in time
by powers known of old
is this your first glimpse into what I have lived with all
of my life?
strangely familiar
crystalline sparks
stately gaunt
love as an agent caught in time
speaking to me
as an enemy
as a hunter
as a lover
the best kind
love as an agent sworn to uphold
his mission is me
or so I've been told
how terribly flattering
how immense must be the load
to find oneself
chattering with birds
and dogs, and knocks in the night
love as an agent
whispering why
vivid anger
metaphorphizing
into
a giant
