IRRATIONAL
-----
what you want to say is you love him,
a perfect representation, the platonic ideal.
it would be free from flaw, glistening by the moonlight,

a smooth frictionless sphere.

what you say instead is you are glad he is here,
may you hold his hand, may you sit closer to him,
and you struggle with approximation, making
vulgar fractions out of the transcendent truth.
