Tangent. A poem.

I’m off on a tangent,
tangentially related to
this relationship
that doesn’t exist
but continually insists
betwixt was and is and not
that it could and should and would
be something worth waiting for,
despite the frustration
and inevitable fall,
the appalling nature of its form,
and the tangent to which
it’s only barely related at all.
