Don’t Lie to Me
No.
No.
I know
we agreed
we would meet half-way.
This shouldn’t be so difficult.
But again you’ve chosen to take the high ground over
the mutual love we declared.
A hierarchy
instead of
just Us.
Damn
you.
(after the undated and untitled photograph of a woman looking up in a stairwell, by Francesco Verolino)

Loved the form and message!
Thank you! The Fibonacci Sequence is something I’ve rarely worked in, but sometimes the poem tells me what it wants to be.
