patience
in and of itself
and
then despair
not
all truths are bitter
not
all lies need to be spoken
aloud
move
closer to the mirror in
this
room of accumulated dustand then turn away
shame
is everywhere
the
absence of warmth
pull
back the curtains to
find
only sorrow
fading
daylight
the
sky is beautiful
but
stained with poison
the
poison tastes like sugar
licked
from your lover’s skin
who
is it that tells you to
leave
the world a better placethan you found it?
why
do you believe that
personal
salvation is a given?
turn
off the tv
close
your eyes when the
trigger
is pulled
even
now
it’s
not too late
