misunderstanding cont'd

standing in an open expanse
with hands placed palm to palm
i bend my elbows to draw you close
you think i'm gearing to push you away
so you slump back
now my arms are extended and yours held back in fear
so i reach to embrace but
you're too far gone and you realize and
you reach but i have put my arms down
in rejection and you put your arms down
why don't we just do palm to palm

step one. something bad happens
step two. someone needs to be blamed

and the great finger point begins. you to her, her to him, him to him, him to them.
but so far no one is turning their finger around
and nowhere is the finger pointing back at their own chest

we don't even need elbows anymore because everyday our motions need to become more pronounced. and if you can't do a gesture big and powerful then you mustn't at all.

and if you aren't pointing a finger outward then you wouldn't point at all.

one finger pointing out is just three pointing back at you as they say. next step is to point all of them and then you will resemble someone else from history.
