Now I want to learn that dance!

Dream Suitor – June 18, 2025, daylight morn
(Him, flowing and lovely)
You get so much done
You feel so much love
I’m taking the time to get to know you
I wanna grow old as get to hold you
With only the stars in the heavens
Lasting longer than our life’s honor
You would send me
Words so I could sleep
You’d say a prayer
For God to vigil keep
I never knew why
You were kind to me
I never knew
I never knew
I never knew
I never KNEW
Until I woke up
And looked around
And saw you
Smiling at me
(Speeding up with crowd joining “THAT!”)
And you want me
Just like THAT
Gotta have me
Just like THAT
Gonna feed me
Just like THAT
Gonna need me
Just like THAT
(Me)
I know that you
Play the long game
But if we don’t leap
How will we learn
That it’s gonna last
Despite our past?
(Him)
Give it time
Follow my rhyme
You’ll see we’ve
Got it in the bag
Will you take this ring
And be my wife
To be there every
Day of my life?
Cause I do
I do I do
Choose you
I do I do
I do
I can only do
Short flights &
Gentle landings
She knew a thing or two, about a thing or two.
A pack could thrive well on this foundation.
In her opinion, they could spend the rest of their lives together, loving and pleasing each other.
She’d always been.
Of course she’d like to be wooed, but with having incurred such losses in the past, she’d rather have secured first a solid mateship.
That’s the thing about aging: gained wisdom and understanding from experience – but even less tolerance for “wasting” time.
She still did not understand how the mating game worked.
All she knew was that she had waited, been kind and diligent despite everything – and that she could no longer tolerate uncertainty in a male’s actions.
She was about to go out there and tear a piece out of his hind end for arousing her need and teasing her without real option.
“Nothin’ like havin’ the trap on the other paw.”
“Males.”
“I love you and I want you!” she bark-snapped out at him briefly at the entrance – then turned, stiff-legged with hackles raised as she stalked back into her den’s quiet solitude.

Real issues
“I made a mistake in calculations, and now overdrafts for minor amounts are hitting.
‘This one’s on me.'”
“If you don’t want to join up with me, stop sniffing around my den,” she low-growled, hidden within her sanctuary, at the primed male wolf still too wary in his approaching.
I toil against the odds
But where’s the love
I want in my arms?
The assumption that if something ‘feels the same,’ it will not shift to greater gains.
“It’s different?”
“It’s hard to live on faith alone.”
“My struts are screaming
I don’t know what I did or
If it’s from increased load
But I must say this means
That I am getting better
Otherwise – I’m fu**ed.”
“You are mine –
Now rise again”
“You are ‘the bee’s knees.'”
“How can I best support your efforts?
‘Show me that which I cannot see.'”
(Sleep Token reference)
“The wonderful gym assistant found my black velvet bag with clothes and shoes in it for me!”

“I must push it back off from me – and perceive it more positively as my senses telling ne that there are more next things to be done.”
“Do you think it is best to begin with marriage – or have you found better alternative?”
When odds are stacked
At last in the right favor
Potential cracks barriers
For intention to proceed
I’m not the type to
Let go once agree
Are you the same
With predilection?
“I wonder if part of the problem has been masking on both ends?
But, I do think that pausing to observe our potential reactions before action is still good practice.
It’s just the lock-down hiding that keeps us second-guessing.
Do you think we could get strong and brave enough?
I don’t want to wait until we’re ‘perfect.’
How can we rebuild trust in ourselves and develop trust together from the very beginning – even as just newly re-learning?
What core component can we hang our coats upon that will allow us to begin – and keep progressing through any weather as we grow in strength and get better?”
Do we know enough to
“Get it right” this time?
I don’t think that there are
Really any “wrong” moves
Although we can agree that
Extremes must be managed
Simply because resulting confusion
Could send interpretations careening
I think for a relationship to work well
It mostly takes collaborative attending
And hopefully agreeing on essential things
While working out kinks in disagreements
“Gives me access to the universe.”
“I want to go where nobody else will ever go.”
(From Sleep Token’s “Vore”)
“Re-scans for neck and spine since that backwards fall over and into the open suitcase – and now the other hip – are now ready to be performed.
At this point, though, do I really want to know?
This experience since the accident has carried too deep themes of humiliation and intimidation.
Having to advocate for myself while injured, yet doing all that I can to mask as ‘normal,’ creates an internal dichotomy.
Am I injured, or am I well?
Every moment is a type of phasing between realms, stuck in between and pulled waywardly-twisting over crucial pivot points – painfully, if not vigilantly careful.”
