You and I meeting
for the first time.
Together, we found
spaces
built in polygons,
yellow, orange, and red.
Places to experiment, learn,
play, create.
The safety to
talk of speed bumps, loss,
failure.
But you and I -
an army -
propping up those colored polygons
to turn defeat against itself or,
at least,
make it something we take on
together.
Places and spaces into
moments and memories and
bonds to hold onto
beyond those polygons,
yellow, orange, and red.
