Give and Take

"I watch you give and give
to takers
and take and take
from givers"

-Says someone who keeps giving me something I don't want.

What defines you? 
What makes you run 
headlong into the wall, 
again and again
thinking, 
maybe
someday
it will 
somehow
become an open door.  

If you bring me something
I didn't ask for
is it really
for me?

If you are giving for you,
are you the giver
after all. 

-Something to ponder while you fall asleep - still kicking yourself for your faults. 

Maybe the world will be 
square, tomorrow
and I can just walk
right off the edge
into the unknown.

How freeing.
How freeing would that be
just to know
how far the edge
how far it goes.
