the truest love: ask me about too perfect*
this I believe:
that part of we humans
that intersects emotion
& memory retains a video
not frequently reviewed,
placed deep in an unlocked,
unlabeled chest of drawer
surrounded by keepsakes, hidden
letters, scribbled napkins and
a less-than-handful of stills,
plain poems of raw delicacy
infrequent summoned, preceded
by a stray, strong thot asking
no one but you, why now? what
was the trigger synapse?
the love, the being, blessed, cursed,
known by its call letters:
TOO PERFECT…
