Partnerships-

a means of accessorizing
ourselves and others
by assigning each other roles
that fit around one another.
The better to aspire to some new,
as yet unadjusted to, 'authenticity'.

Signs Of Greater Age (3)

1-Wandering around a supermarket
at least three times to find the goods
you need because your shopping list
is in your head, and you were relying
in the prompt of the shelves groaning
with goods to remind you of your needs.

2-Half remembering the names
and faces of ministers who in the
present government, but having
a clear memory for the names and faces
of ministers of governments from before
you were born and as you became an adult.

War Through The Ages

War at first is like a young girl
with whom everyone wants to flirt
but by the last it is like an old woman.
All who meet her feel grieved and hurt.
-Samuel Ha-Nagid
