TIED WITH A BOW



i like things
tied with bows

knots are stand-off-ish
tape is tear-the-paper-ish

bows are loops of intrigue
'rabbit ears' on surprises

bows tease
but they don't resist

if you approach them
in the right way
they allow you
entry

if you choose to ignore the way a bow works
the way it's best untied

if you ignore
 that
one
small
truth 

the bow will make you
work a bit harder

or
refuse to open at all
and simply knot itself
in resistance

but isn't that true of everything?
and of everyone?....
