how assertive is the past
the future is the feminine
the past is more masculine
the past comes up behind you
the future something you follow
let’s say I stalk the future
with my errors poised and ready
while it sits content as bait
I can’t but go to him
he can’t but stay and wait
this is not protocol or gender
but a longing and its fate
one says return to sender
the other it’s a date
