I only want of you
what I can see you do,
what I can hear you say.
You intentions matter
to me, but they are not
what I need most — do
or do not, speak or
remain silent; that’s
where I will find you
at your most clean
and uncluttered. That’s where
we should meet —
in the groove cut by our
behavior; that is where
you should seek me as well,
among my own voiced
and acted moments; let’s leave
the philosophy up on the high ground
we’ve cut through to get here.
Hold each other. Hear each other.
Stay here, in the ground we’ve made.
