Brendan (at Two)
by Mark E. Schwarz

Your gait is something
between
destiny and disaster
beginning
daring
discovering
what thought of
limits,
what thought of
structure?

Only impetus

Your words are something
between
poetry and conundrum
exclaiming
proclaiming
declaiming
what thought of
limits,
what thought of
structure?

Only ideas

Your emotions are something
between
the cherub and the troll
demanding
insisting
protesting;
what thought of
limits,
what thought of
structure?

Only truth

Your life is something
between
today and forever
growing
seeing
touching
what thought of
limits,
what thought of
structure?

Only being

Only love

Only you
