Learning
To tie my shoelaces
Was
One of the most difficult things
I have had to learn
Measuring
The right amount
Of
Lace
To make a bow
Learning
How
To precisely twist the lace
To prevent a knot
That would take longer
To undo
Than it did to make
Or
Tying them
Tight enough
To avoid
Tangling myself
In loosened laces
And
Tripping
Falling headfirst
Due to my haste
To complete
The task
Since
I have learned
To tie my shoelaces
The simplicity of it
Makes me wonder
Why
It had been
Difficult
To learn
Because
Loving you
Was not learned
It came
Simply
Without thought
Without trial
And
Its only difficulty
Is trying
To measure it
In adequate portions
So it will never
Run out

When I merge
With
The morning crowd
Each person
Buffered
By
A zone
Of
Private contemplation
Numbing them
To the bodies
They
Press in to
Involuntarily co-mingling energy
With
Every breath exhaled
As
We
Tunnel through time
And
Transfer between moments
Interchanging
Bits
Of
Ourselves
Until
We are forced
Upon
Arrival
To break
The connection
