charity begins at home
if it is not charity you offer but something bigger and more ill-defined
perhaps love as you claim
then that also begins at home
i am out of my depth
you are out of yours
we are both drowning
we are both dying
i want to make one peace in my life
only one
the world will tick and explode around me and there will still be just the one
i'd throw you an olive branch and a life preserver and a bottle of something strong
but i fear you are in too deep and in too shallow a water
exchanging fluids with the ankle biters with not a shark in sight
you will always have them and them you
and the sharks generally leave the handsome well-dressed alone anyway
you knew that anyhow
you've come this far unshackled
look man
i tried to love your wife yesterday
don't worry
that didn't work either
