Sphere

Sphere

Gestures we offer one another,

Like flagrant temptation, one holds to the next

But the blunt of our appologies and words to one another

tend to follow a familiar pattern

Circling itself once again.

Sparking memories of an older apology~

One without flavour or stability

But rather fluid and inconcrete.Β 

I refuse to be one of those,

For I would rather be resented for being selfish

Than hand over an empty platter of someone else's regret.Β
