Other Regions

I know now

                  what this is. This is me

                                                                     pushing 

Go Away! You!                  I can't quit you and 

                                                           lordy

does this girl hate to fail. Anything.

So I try to make you quit me, which, actually

         you've already done

                                          on one realm, in one level, upon one parallel diagonal

but, there's a region, other land

                                       we tread together, where no one else can go

you don't quit me there, know my heart, recognize yours

 

like

       two wild canines running forest fast on mountain moonlight paths

like

        fireflies night dancing with shadow of flickering fireworks

like 

         white water cascading over the edge into barreling speed 

                                                                                               no bottom

          flying

                        endless boundless love

transcendence; can't quit. Can you?
