the price of something
held for
moments fleeting
cost benefit
maximization
in choice matters
satisfaction cannot
be achieved
in this or
what you might call
experimentation
confronted choices
balance outward
signs of struggle
bring me the head
bring me the head
dare this
to me
I can’t won’t will not
choose
a likeness less
leveled upon me
more than given
broken by more than weight
take this
take this
strangers across crowded rooms
in infinite poses
beckoning choices
learn something
beg for more
come back for less.
