in the blink of an eye
before i even realized you were looking
wink
and you're gone
butch-femme
dyke-lesbian
pants-dress
it's all a set of continua
and i want to be the ends of the middle
you my polar endocentric opposite
within a system
within a system
like attracts like but
like and unlike like each other
quantum physics is always
contradictory
too small particles
miss the bigger picture
swirling in an electron cloud
the sea drowns you
as it speaks to the sky.
living in the underground
a system within a system
we travel downstairs
through solid doors
with nondescript signs
before finding the people we know
i love the way
ladies come first
and you took my hand
even if you should have already met
we're trapped in this stupid powerplay
where we live out roles scripted for us
there is comfort in the rhythm
but also dissonance
i wait for the resolution
i crave synchrony
denouement
means only the next movement
a pause to recoup
but the conductor never lowers his hands
white-gloved and hesitant
Maestro
we call you many names.

If you have not yet seen the film "What the Bleep Do We Know?", you need to see it soon. This excerpt reminds me of it.
