Old Gemini (Commentary)

Evening in the garden

Surrounded by fireflies

We'd only just moved in

I spend my time alone readingAnd planted one thing a day

While shoveling the yard

My spade hit a metal box

And in it was a diary

The cover old and frayedIt said "I don't know how much time I have

But I guess we never really do

I thought that I would be terrified

But its worse to watch them watchingSometimes I wish our lives were simpler

That we'd never have to stretch the food

That people here would treat my brother well

And that he would know he's good."I laid out all those pages

And in my study typed them up

It was tough to say how old they were

I guess -- years at leastThe boy who wrote these words

Was an odd and complicated mind

But wisdoms often heavier

When found before its timeIt said "We all get stuck in circles

But nothing moves in perfect lines

Connections underly the things we see

But the nuances went blindAnd I am never singular

I was born a pair to walk alone

My mirror shows the things I'm not

But he helps me feel at home."
