Kinship
When you fall prey to hypnotic ideas
people that promise history, pro-offered love,
Do they realize the seduction in these words?
Family knowledge, loyalty, and intimacy...
Kinship
Do they know how indescribably exotic this seems?
After a barren, lonely, self-serving existence lead.
A plant that knows sun only through paneled glass.
A feeling of inadequacy, no matter a lifetime of reality.
Kinship
Overwhelming as the perfume of the flowers growing.
All opening their arms declaring a closeness unknown.
Fascination not to be interrupted by negativity.
Such hypnotic ideas are foreign to me thus far...
