too close and yet too far

if you ever want to touch,
you have to move past too close.
touching's so much farther in
than too close ever gets to go

too close for comfort
or to call
will keep you at arm's length,
that's all.

if that's as close as you can get?

you'll have to keep your distance, pet.

but

if you never want to touch, it's easy
or, easy enough.
