CLASPED COUPLES
Couples clasped together,
They are my enemies . . . .
Train goes under . . . .
Chimney walks by . . . .
They are my enemies.
A long forest is crowded,
But it is that clasped couple,
That is my enemy . . . .
Guardians of a secret, but seen pleasure world,
That I cannot enter.
Those bastards . . . .
Their smooth edges make mine rougher . . . .
My round edges chafe when I look upon them . . . .
Their walls show my Freedom.
A freedom to let flow my anger unabated,
Till it courses in unison with my blood metastasizing through me.
Truth comes only when you don’t hold back . . . .
How can it come while holding the hand of the fairer?
There’s only room for one out the out door . . . .
