even among the ones who know better
we still fall into old patterns
I shouldn't have let them change me
but it was so tempting
to let you carry me next to your spark
and sliding through tape heads, completely encased
was even a greater pleasure than I had imagined
(and we only ever pretended we even had a choice)
but I should have known that once he was gone,
someone would set you above me
because even before you had two legs
and I ran on four
do not be afraid.
we will both come home.
we will not be alone.
