Synergy Writing Contest ~ Poetry Entry

On seeing eye to eye

you are not like the others
two dimensional or too busy

there is no ice, no unconcern
in the animal calmness
of your sloe-black eyes

like me you are curious, then interested

we are always starting
meeting for the first time
again, again - eye to eye

you come up to me or I to you
and everything commences everywhere
but nothing’s done – nothing’s ever done

beyond meeting for the first time
again, again – eye to eye

not to complain but merely to explain
that we need this – always this
if even only this.
