Seven Sisters |
He made the world a grassy road before our bare, wandering feet, |
and crushed the stones into the softest sand between our toes, |
but we’re wondering where to sleep, |
clever words on pages turn to fragments; |
Circles, points and lines, and cover them like carpets, with graceful, |
meaningless ornamental designs come quick, |
you light that knows no evening |
Come, alone to the alone! |
There are a thousand sanities worth leaving to take your madness home, |
you dance inside my chest where no on sees you, |
but sometimes I see you rejoice, the cleansing of my lips |
Rejoice, salvation of my soul! |
But I still have a thousand half-loves |
(Oh my God! I want to shoot myself just thinking about it) |
And you think I don’t mean what I say? |
I mean every word I say. |
I threw a stone at the reflection of my image in the water, |
and it altogether disapperared. |
I burst, it shattered me like a bullet through a bottle, |
and I’m expected to believe that any of this is real. |
