Halves

I thought I understood it
That I could grasp it, but I didn't. Not really.
Only the smudgeness of it
The pink slippered, all-containered, semi-precious eagerness of it
I didn't realize it would sometimes be more than the whole
That the wholeness was a rather luxurious idea
Because it's the halves that halve you in half
The didn't know, don't know about the in between bits
The gory bits of you, and the gory bits of me
