Flee! All has been discovered.



Time soon
for us
to
choose
“derring-do”,
or a loss of truth.


Either will be costly.


Both will be frostily perceived

by those fools who
shoot their own crew
in order to make themselves
feel like a part of something self-hewn.

Take my hand.

Bring the other colour.

Let’s dance.

Red shoes.
