I don't tell people...what inspires me most--

         I love that man
what caught me first;
his irritable vehemence--
Talking about his X-wife
with snarling anger
tone hissing mouth
growl------

        We have so much in-common
including impossible standards of expectation
from other people,
but primarily opposite sex---

        His raging
                at life
                blinding his futuristic vision
My own clouded-over long lengths of time--
cleared away first with anti-depressants 
uncovering a bigger black (w)hole
(hope there is only one)
now try to fill with anti-psychotics--
                        Talk therapy helps
                        they tell me--
        But when I talk to him
           he talks to me
so many superstitions get in the way
flying off from both our centers
colliding gyrating infinities
transparent constellations
from schizophrenic worlds
        little invisible dervishes
We both know powerful 
                unseen(due to blindness &
                mental illness)
our individual guidance systems
          chart us through life
We both together/each individually believe
our own implicitly superior--no doubts
        everyone else wrong--
