Scatter........ Poem by RIC BASTASA

sky and
earth can make
a compromise
between them

air, and sun and
moon too, night and
day, and between us
some words,

know by now
that for this world
to keep on
revolving, there
must be some compromises,

win some, lose some,
you cannot have
all of me as i cannot
have all of you,

go, come back, go,
come back,
do not stay, as
i will do the
same.

a part of my time
a part of my place.
some space between.
air to take in and
sighs to take out.

let us scatter.
spare some pieces.
