Blue-Crested Cry
by Jennifer Reeser
We’re through, we’re through, we’re through, we’re through, we’re through
andflanking, now, the edges of our schism
it seems your coldness and my idealism
alone for all this time have kept us true.
Credulous I and hedonistic you:
opposed, refracting angles of a prism
who challenged sense with childish skepticism
and every known the bulk of mankind knew.
