The Agreement

Let there be an understanding
I am not your keeper

Whatever star you follow
that is your way
probably not mine

We can share a campfire
an idea
or the couched prayers
of our bodies

but let us agree
not to claim to know
if this untethered gathering 
of certain opinions
is not the end, nor the beginning
or the middle
of anything important
whatsoever.
