work.

cocktails
for me
and the editors of
the journal (the best journal)

everyone whispered
"you
would have been
editor-in-chief,
if
you hadn't gone to
France again"

tell me something i didn't know
like i need
another reason
to regret

(but we are going to do well
and
thats
all that matters)


law and
sexuality?
priority.
it will be good
if it kills me

even if it isn't
mine.

I like how the turn, the tone of determination at the end signals closure to the decision made. It makes the poem so grounded on humanity. And practicality (always a plus in my book). Cheers.
