the answer came in four parts
but we only had three
little reasons to keep on believing,
were they enough to stave off the fire wood
as they tumbled outside and over all this creation
of yours and mine
double-time,
what we said may have been key
to finding that last fragment needed
do we not, never mind and keep on rolling
with half empty seasons for living
how much longer does this have to continue
before we finally buckle our backbone
and yell!

NO MORE NONSENSE

when does it end?
this crazy reeling from anything that sounds like
love,
we dance around issues
laugh in the face of,
make sick jokes of pretense
and yet we keep falling
around this great longing,
why deny it
no reason, except
we be deaf, dumb and way too kind
what an insult to those who can hear
much less, see
now are we really without sight?
or has our moon finally set
on the long, lost horizon of the blind.. .
