The Carelessness

The Carelessness

I guess
it was
the carelessness
of it all,

the way
she felt
to feel

and yet
she never
did.

She said
"I love you,"
emoji
happenstance
to gingerbread
the crumbs
of nearly being
vulnerable
in some smallish
and meaningless
way.

It was
just too real
to be intimate
enough
to kiss.

Push it
in.

Hurry.

Leave.

The scary-eyed
number.

Singularity
in any way
is an abomination.

Agreement
is the first step
of losing
your freedom.

Alignment.
Harmony.
Abomination.

Monohabelis,
an isolation.

The mind
has updated
hardware,

but
who knows
about updating
the software?

The carelessness
of not waiting
so small
a length
of time

to hear
the last word
of understanding....
