everything and its opposite
i wouldn’t want you to get
too delicate,
but i’ll give you everything
and its opposite.
i would glut you full of
every worry and whim,
so you should not miss any
delight or chagrin.
so that you would not miss
any possibility,
for earthly tragedy or divine comedy,
this might seem a curse or treat,
depending on the perspective
you choose to see.
but as i promise you and all
my lovers,
i deliver nothing less
than abundance.
i’ll give you all and its inverse
because the universe appointed
you to make its truce
because you are the agent to
the galaxies
and, as diplomat, you should know
its mysteries.
so i’m blessing you with vision
grand and clear
so that in my arms you’ll
never need fear.
though much in this world
seems far from transparent,
we’ve left this plane for
our own private planet.
