nearly an aerie

I was weak as all get out, not beat down by life
but ripe and palatable
like a peach
perfect to pick.

I say he swooped in, he says I plucked him up
clutched him hard
hot in my talons
and held on.

We shrug-What's the worth in being right,
when we still
grasping and clinging
oh so tight?
