“Compulsion’s better than desire.”
   ~ Russian proverb

In her poem about him
He’s writing a poem about her
In which of course she’s writing about him
Writing about her
In details so vivid
They might exist only in each other
As poems
Unless it’s really only one poem
You’re reading on this very page
Presuming you exist
At least one poet does too
   ~ Thanks Always Returns
