I have an urgent need to see...
a need to see a person for who he really is not for what I have seen him for in the past... before he is completely gone from my sight I need to see him without my own eyes nor through the eyes of love or hatred or confusion there can't be any of that anymore I need something less complicating I've known (of) him all my life for, he is my Brother Its important now for me to have no bias to see him I need to see him very clearly before he is gone from my sight forever my emotions have blinded me his long silences have blinded me the long distances between us have blinded me the miles and miles have attempted to erase us... both our bloodlines and our past history he is fleeing everyone he is leaving everyone he at times has even left himself but yet I will still not erase him nor will his trickster attempts to slip through the fence of our past shared memories work their terrible magic I know he's hell-bent on uncharted territory for he is my wily coyote brother I think he might be proud of his hooliganism... but I am not a coyote yet I don't know what I am I cannot follow after him I am not him still I need to see him better and I do not have the means... would it take a better pair of binoculars? I need to see him before he's beyond the final perimeter so I know his true character so I have an eternal photograph of him to tattoo on my heart so he can not slip away completely forever unseen for who he is but he never made me a promise to be human once when I asked him to stay in one place for awhile he grinned but it was too much for him my brother coyote is always moving onto the next mile I can't make him un-wild I wish I could gentle his mind to make him settle in or settle down but his wish is not my wish and so I have to let him go. I vow to love him always, anyway.
