If you’re drowning next to me
and you’re doing your best not to disturb me or bother me with it
and I’m not sure if I should help
or exactly how or if I have your permission to touch you
as I explain to you, in between your gurgles,
the hashtags of it all to you and how aware I am that I don’t want to interfere
or intrude or interrupt or impose upon your processes
with my selfish urge to help
and thereby and forthwith impact adversely your own sense of agency
Well,
I want you to feel free to kick me in the balls
way before you slip under
…for two primary reasons:
- It may save us both somehow if you did and
- Well…just because…
Do I need to explain?
