The Two Step

I like everything there is to like about you

except

for the fact that you can't see that

You took your fingers and rubbed down your eyelids

and since then

an unparalleled murkiness was beginning its infiltration

This was all so unsettling

imperfection disguised as some kind of perfection disguised as

just the attempt that it actually is

we were so silly

and silliness always leads to such a beautiful and unnecessary requiem
