The things we must never forget once they have begun.

Resisting is the watchful part of love

That insures certainties.

There is no membership card you get, and beyond casual scrutiny

The unaccredited sunset is simple-mindedly let in:

Here you are...

The gulf you find might just as easily have brayed out in the

Elbows of the real-life lakes, the fingerlings--

A gulf that, as if itself presuming,

Imposes its own full depths purely as an example of

the murky religion of its bathers, its opinions of the sun

Strobe with light--as if charismatic,

Dismissive.
