Dikaryon
---
the secret to cold fusion falls
on rocks and leaves and mouldy logs
the secret drifts downwind through them
and into godless chitin walls 

it creeps nextdoor and then the next
and always just the same
a space devoid of progeny.
a space devoid of sex.

and yet the love is stronger there
than any place i've ever been
for who can let another in
and keep themselves the same
