Yes (a poem)

in poetry •  8 years ago 

I am a boy or a girl
I am cruel or kind
I want more and less

What are you?
When you select?
Why do you say yes?

Liberty and Death
So delicate their fingers
Freely tracing rhythms
Cold dances on spines

And I am
One or the other
If you ask

But you will
Demand specificity
Though it never lasts
