proximity

your proximity
is guiding me
to cut the negative space
in two
leaving only ribbons
shredded strings
of missed opportunities

i will write a novel
of the subtle nuances between
the variety of ways you look at me
and sell it to you
by the inches between us

your proximity
is guiding me
to cut through the layers
unleash
honesty upon you
vulnerability
looks good on me

Well, I knew you before I had jumped into taking over LA. So I don't think I ever saw you perform/read. Do you have any books?
