Comparison
You measure your requests
By your neighbor’s
As though your elevation
Might be the same
As though your destiny
Will meet—
plane to plane
As though becoming one
Is anything other than reaching
By your own means
In your own way
Whatever place you are meant to
Experience
In whatever way you are meant to experience
As whatever being you are to experience
Being
Being
Needy
Needy you
Together
In this utterly twisted
Divinely spiritual
Spiritual place.
