Please take my time

 Please Take My Time


the more I know 

the fewer questions I have 

about my role and 

what comes next 


we could take turns 

you could drive for a while

as I head for your curves 

please take my time 


you’ve put a lot work

into yourself 

curated a life 

despite this mess


as I untangle riddles

written yourself 

I get drawn into knots 

tied like you’re seven


we could order another course

finish the wine 

but if you’re sure you’ve got to go

please take my time 


amidst the devastation 

in spite of the death 

there’s a new horizon 

and some beauty left 


we can fight all night 

and still make the bed 

get it right once  

and never again 


until then 

I’ll just rhyme these lines 

leave the suitcase 

but please take my time

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode
