OK
VISUALIZING 
a BIG black box
AROUND myself 
& LIMITING 
EYE contact 
is proving to be
PRETTY effective 

ALSO
NO
EXTRA talking

DON'T 
FILL
DON'T 
try to entertain 
DON'T 
hold yourself to some
STANDARD 
of politeness or whatever 

YOU want me to be HERE 
I'm HERE
BUT 
NOT all the STUFF 

BECAUSE 
what I'd like to say 
& MIGHT some day is

THIS is GRACE 
you didn't 
EARN THIS 
you don't DESERVE it 

I'm GIVING you, or I have been, an enormous GIFT
which you are SQUANDERING 
because you don't 
SEE my VALUE 

AND
I KNOW you are a
ONE TRICK PONY
thinking that your money
will buy you what you
CAN'T be BOTHERED to DO
APPROPRIATELY 

BUT 
you're KIDDING yourself 
AND
DEEP DOWN 
you KNOW that

I am NOT motivated by money
& you've done
NOTHING 
to BUILD
LOVE
