Thanks

Yes, we see each other

The signal that I sent across the years

(which, since it met with no response,

I’d left,

continuing to work

because I needed to,

slowly gaining prowess on my own)

Has now come back

at the right time.

Light recognizes light,

Honest dedicated effort

sees the same

And so we start to forge a higher discourse

Where we redeem the purpose of our being

So I say thanks —

Thanks for how you live your life,

thanks for what you see

thanks for the clarity

that frames your thoughts,

thanks for seeing me

Thanks for attention, instead of norms,

Thanks for the dance within the meta-forms.
