waiting for the ultimatum

this is me
sitting on the edge with
bated breath, 
beckoning for the ultimatum. 
(of dreams hitherto conjured)


so that there can be
rest -
from this marathon of covetousness, of silent envy;
which has made a farce
out of bona-fide friendships 
or unmitigated happiness for someone else other than the 
carnal self.  

with frosted breath,
i wring my hands
and wait.
