[ Anniversary 2021 ] It was in the cards
that we could eventually meet;
our personal decks stacked
with the means to complete
each other in ways
some might consider
extraordinary to odd
despite the foregone illusion
of coming into this world
emptyhanded---not even
having any aces sleeved away
That we would eventually meet . . .
is an altogether different story
for you
for me;
for everyone
dictates their roles individually
in the friction between moments
where desire is thumbed
against a worry stone of what
has already transpired
Nothing is chiseled in marble
or etched in concrete
with the exception of
our John Hancocks
scrawled in the wet cement
of Sacred Contracts
The only undeniably indefatigable
guarantee in this world is that
those of similar vibrations
are drawn to one another
Although, who is to say
what frequency ours might be
as we grow and change
channels, rarely static
What I do know
is that there are years
and a lightly tread path
still ahead of us for walking
arm in arm around such
a monumental truth
---perhaps glimpsing runes
here and there on the henged
ruins regarding our Past Lives
but it is in this lifetime
that the writing is on the wall
and thus it shall always be
as it ever was
It will be in the cards
