Together Together Together

Altogether,
lost. All together, 

we gather our losses
and try to lose them.

Together, we have
become lost. This kind

of togetherness has become
its own kind of thing, 

an unequal approach
to unequal approaches. 

Swim together,
sink together,

squander together. 
Each gathering

gathers together
the already together 

reifying, nearly deifying.
Defiance, together.

Refinance, together.
Finesse, on loan,

alone.
