Through the field together.

He runs and she chases him. 

She'll never catch him.

He's too sure and nimble. 

Swift and strong. 

Her chromosomes are a heaviness she can't put down.

He runs and she chases him. 

They trail their matching laughter behind them

like ribbon adorned kite strings. 

There is a belying sameness to their merriment. 

He runs and she chases him,

As he urges her to pursue. 

'Be relentless and vast', his blue eyes blaze wordlessly.

He runs. And she chases him.

But she needn't. 

He never goes beyond her reach.
