We can’t seem
to just let it be

no matter the
sober contemplation

the intoxication
takes us

and somehow
it seems inevitable

that “maybe” that
insists on
dangling in
that ever-shrinking
space between

this is us

and maybe
we don’t want
whatever
answer
we seek

maybe there
is no question

there is just
that moment
and the seizing.
