Pull What You Have Closer

Pull What You Have Closer

Desire

We want to want.

But lacking is suffering.

Pull what you have closer.

The friend I want to sit in a sunny field with as we trip on LSD

The child who missed me

The other child who likes to chill and laugh at politics

The vegetables I vow to turn into salads

The roses that crave pruning

The soul touching circles I assemble around me

The love I vowed to serve as a knight - an oath of the highest order.

I lie on the rug and pull these shapes closer to me. The desire for what I can already reach brings vitality. This life comes closer.
