I Could Take

by Hayden Carruth

I could take
two leaves
.........and give you one.
Would that not be
a kind of perfection?

But I prefer
one leaf
.........torn to give you half
.............showing

(after these years, simply)
love's complexity in an act,
.........the tearing and
..............the unique edges —
one leaf (one word) from the two
imperfections that match.
