Wicked Windows |
I review my past through wicked windows framed in silver |
And hung in toughened glass, upon my face, around and over |
Now and then: memories of men who loved me |
No stolen kiss — could match their march on hot coals for me |
I have walked a line both faint and narrow, hard to follow |
Caught up in circumstance. |
Harsh truth for history to mellow |
Through my eyes: loyalties and obligation |
Magnified. |
Obedience: the better fellow |
Better not remember me. |
Don’t mis my passing |
Fierce winter fails to ruffle my icy sleep |
We never quite vanish. |
No wet soft surrender |
Still waiting: bad blood running in close families |
I laughed like any child — although you might find that strange |
And christmas was my favourite holiday |
Christmas was my favourite holiday |
I am not alone in seeing the world through wicked windows |
While others hide likewiese behind this vulnerable squinting |
It’s in the stare: it’s in the silent scrutinizing |
Strip you bare: I ofer you no more disguising |
Better not remember me. |
Don’t miss my passing |
Fierce winter fails to ruffle my icy sleep |
We never quite vanish. |
No wet soft surrender |
Same bad blood running in new families |
