what stands between
this and that
a look?
a glance?
a second fact?
a psychology?
an ideology?
a whim?
a schism?
a thwarted dream?
a friend who intervenes?
a plisse you would rather be
ironed out flat?
a denial?
a pyre?
a burning sphere?
a time?
a place?
a thwarted guess?
a stall for time
that saves you grace?
the space between
a second chance?
life as a rehearsal?
a chance to forget?
nothing at stake?
is this a life
or just a mistake?
