now
in all the unravelling
and tracing backwards
from here till before we first met
I can see why and for whose purpose
our life lines crossed
now
in all the forecasting
and future telling
from today till all the days to come
I can sense why and for which time
we would choose to stay
because
in all the messy rumpled muddle
and the joyful light lit wonder
from who we were till who we will be
I do know why and for what reason
one needs more than one
why then are friends sent if not to carry and cajole, to bundle up and bear
if not to magic feather from lead or make shaky strong
if not to build a posse
why then are friends sent
if not to magic a we from me
our from I or us from you
if not to make half a whole
* If you've got a question about Posse please send me a message.
