Debate

To talk or not to talk,
philosophical conversations or
just archetypal weather observations.

Sans the inclination to tangle,
we reach an acute angle
pointing the way.

The way is narrow.
The way is shallow.
Along came a spider.

“In debating which was best, we shall part with neither.”—The Comedy of Errors

Faulty

I imagine I have no fault coverage
in timely social interactions.

The underlying surrounding disdain
proves me wrong.

All fall down.

“Nihil peccat, nisi quod nihil peccat.”
