Jigsaw

The brain is inept at trying to divine

   the creative fantasies of a noble,

           at times, scheming 

                     mind,


much less probe, from end to start,

      the crimson contours of a 

    generous, at times, covetous 

                     heart.


  We can't fully know you and me;

   like jigsaw pieces, let us seem,

          at times, let us really 

                       be!
