#1 And I just wanted to know, insatiable anticipation, Just how you keep smiling While all your teeth show Stained with all that grief? And though, Outside, you’re nectarine, just as the Ducks ‘midst torrents preen and raindrops Fall fat and unseen, outside Abide, the open window wide, in clear mien I see rain falling over glass, replenish, renew And though you can’t cry, The world does it for you, To yourself, you utter a lie, but the world weeps here For you Just as I do, though, tears unseen Separated by some barrier Between.
