truly

oh darling, wouldn't you know it?
we are tantamount to tyranny,
you and i,
in how we come and go, our ebb and flow
through our intersecting perimeters

here's to realigning time and space,
to chance meetings,
lingering glances,
chances, the taking and not taking

except up here,
and this is where he raises his hand
to the side of his head and taps just
above his brow,
up here, i take you anywhere
you want to go
