DESTINY
We call it love
when two beautiful
accidents like you and me
drift into the same orb
meld in procreation
remain interacting
over much of a century.
Unique
dusty accretions
of special debris
detritus of the universe
we are at any point
what we are still
becoming.
Each one of us
extraordinary, but
accidental occurrences
repeats over
millenniums - each
patterns the world
we share.
