universal dynamics

People are always figuring you
for the "angle in" they each
perceive, and note
as

potentially useful, perhaps
unique, and fruitful
for them. To manipulate,
persuade, or even
deceive. And
always more
for self than
yours, or so
it seems
sometimes.
But

Sometimes

a blessedly mutual sheen,
some union or overlap
in goals
is purposefully forged
(or faked)

for you both

To realize
oh, no. Oh yes,
we're in it together,
and clean - almost. Or
all the way through,
all the way! Forged
or faked, for
goodness
staked

found
good as could
be. Alleluia, for
you! For them.
For me? For pete's sake!
What a glorious,
breaking day
we then make.

Yes,
People are always
figuring you.

Or so it seems,
unless or until
no one does,
anymore

Or is.
So don't you
neglect to see
the chance
to take, the row
to potentially
hoe and till.

Don't
condemn
or accuse or
resent what they see
to pursue, when
they do.

That's your
"angle in"
to. Yours,
too.

Yours, two.
