~~Turning Corners Slowly~~

Hold on to your
Eagerness.
Clutch at
Yourself--
Don't barge ahead
Blindly.
Turn corners slowly.
Each step
You take
Could lead to
A mistake.
Watch your back
At every step--
You can't make
Any guarantees.
No promises
That reach more than
Three days
In the future.
Memories fade,
Meaning fades--
And even words
Can fail.
Even words
Can
Betray.
Undone meanings,
Twisted through
Translation.
Nobody knows,
Because nobody
Sees
What anyone
Reads.
No one can stop you,
But
Everyone
Can see you
Turning corners
Slowly.
Everyone knows
What everybody sees.
Watch your back--
They're on the
Attack.
Turn corners
Slowly.
Judge
Every step
You take.
Watch yourself,
My love.
You are broken,
Just like me--
You didn't watch
Your step
Around
Me.
And I'm
Not sorry--
You should have
Turned corners
Slowly.
