The Other Approach

This is the game: nobody’s rules but ours
basking in the neon, presentation
of this company’s behest, new beginning
set to never end, wound around jest

neither of us wanted anything
except to be the other’s line to draw
so here is marked, shades, no socks
each glass in boxes where we roar

let them stare and photograph a
place of glorious defiance, crafted
where the other, approach carefully staged
yet nothing else is care, except our stance.
