A child will drive its legs until it can reach its mother,
no matter fall of edge nor hurt, it will attain it’s milky goal.
Water will find its level, its source, by gush
or seep or slur until it gnaws its way home.
No open gap is left that air will not fill
like lunge to stave a wound’s full bleed.
I will love this love of you, a gentle hand upon my heart,
for its dear to me as death itself:
An obsessive head-on collusion with fate
making most of what it best desires.
