In the first phase male and female stand
face to face, their trembling antennae

almost touching before the gaze
is broken and they back away, as if nothing

has changed. As if nothing will, again
they stand, face to face, enduring

a vibration. In the second phase the heat
becomes conspicuous. He turns suddenly

and runs, appearing decisive so that she
will follow, or seem to follow--

the way that ripples seem
to chase each other to the shore,

as if they aren't helpless.
