Epiphanies
What greater doubt
than if
preceding only,
or hope cascading through the withheld
unspoken phrase?
Or the conditional, as it slows to place
an obstacle in its very own
path. If only I could
I would deny its existence,
but the conjunctive
bears blame as well,
though nothing’s put before
the preposition (which one
would certainly never end with).

O at the Edges 
Hope cascading through the unspoken? Bi-directional flow no doubt! You have me pondering how much of this goes on in my personal relationships … and in current political affairs!
