No.
Having a discussion with someone, who sees Discussion as the only way and unity as the only result, is not possible, so what do I do?
What do I do, when I cannot talk my way to terms of being here, both of us?
Do I sleep badly at night from fear or anger? Do I ignore them?
Do I take their unwillingness as a threat in itself? Do I try to understand them, embrace them, become the one to create the space inside of me and my world for those, who have no room for me?
Am I the warrior just waiting for the cup to be filled, or the healer, whose cup never runneth over?
Or am I the Man in the middle, endlessly pondering which of the two I actually ought to be, now, right now!?

Hej,
Godt digt, om end lidt spækket med gentagelser. Men det er vel meningen med systemdigtningen.
Rigtig god titel også - men den ville være endnu bedre hvis den var stavet rigtigt: The Initiator of a Hug Gets to Let Go, er den korrekte stavemåde. Ikke at jeg skal sige mig hellig for stavefejl, men synes lige jeg ville pege det ud.
Da du når ned til digtets hovedspørgsmål, er der også nogle formuleringer, du burde tilse: What do I do when I cannot talk my way to terms of being here, both of us?
Lyder for mig at se, som en fordanskning der er gået galt. Both of us, bliver limet på spørgsmål og gør det kluntet i mine øjne.
Verset efter virker også mystisk.
Læser (og det er mig), ender mere forvirret end belært om den rigtige vej, og hvem der får lov til at gi slip på knuset først.
Håber det kan bruges,
Mvh. Holger
