Mad Musings
We've always been quietly contentious
mixed with love dictated by familial ties
He a deep rooted materialist, me a
renunciate of that concrete dogma
He follows the rules down to the last
letter while I methodically disregard
them all
He of fastidious preparation to the
avoidance of unfavorable outcomes,
me preferring to live on wing & prayer
He clinging to a body gone well past
its use-by date yet refusing to vacate
its premises whereas I can't wait to
fly away from mine
He provides the contrast by which
I firmly resolve that which I do not
want to be
