do not forget (10.16.21)

 this
Setting sun
    setting memories affixed
    to past lives
    only to be remembered
Once finally you leap 
        from present to future
leaving the past
    the postcard melting sun
        sky on fire
impossible reality moments

The rest of humanity, nothing
    but silhouettes
&
She &
I
    holding on
        keeping the golden
            hour shining from even
                below the depths
Of inevitability.

Eventually, to rise
        Again.
both, but apart
    as one silhouette in foreground
        and one in background
but both
only shadows

Only rough sketches cast
    dark against the brightness
        of a sun
            carrying on beyond
Understanding.

Is it possible
    to ever
        be saved?

By another or by self?

One, more likely than the other
    but, 
        Neither are likely.

Playing the percentages
            leaning against that
                asymptote
                    & never quite
finding the origin.

What a cruel joke.

The precision of random lives
    distributed all the same
given enough bodies and time
    knowing with a certainty that
the house holds all the cards
    and knowing forever how
forever looks
for a single point of 
        viewing the best-case
as only one case out of 
    an infinite
impossibility to
            fall beyond expectations
intentions or otherwise
            the precision of the
pattern wins out with
        Universal truth.

    This is how the pieces
            fall
Some land upright
                others
                        collapse
but none ever reach
        none ever touch
                none ever know

    the infinite
        the source
            the truth.
