Don’t make too much of this.
It’s not a big deal.
Don’t call attention to it
lest you scare it away.
This thing
that we’d best not speak of
is like a wary fawn
that it’s safest we avoid contact with
– I do not like how this sentence is going.
but there it is –
because if we face it head-on
it will dart and dash
and may never be seen again.
The fawn.
The thing we’re not talking about.
You get what I’m saying, right?

Better we not jinx
this thing we have.

Don’t call it a comeback.
Too many expectations.
Better we just enjoy
what we experience
while it’s here
than make mention of it
and risk its disappearance.

You don’t know how dangerous it might be.
Just let it be.
Just…
let us be.
