(no subject)

Alas, oh-
At that moment when my heart
Unhinged its jaw to finally
Slake the thirst of aeons on
The milk of the broad cosmos
I choked on a piece of
something too bright, too sharp,
Too cunning and too sweet.

And now, lo-
My heart knows not whether
To rejoice or lament for
Everything that lays forward
On the two divergent paths
Of my future.
