so she said I
but she meant no
and that is how it began

the masters escaped the context
locked down in the act of words
as the shrieking silence
sews safety pins
through whispering lips

the woman lies still now
on the kitchen table
as the clothes crumples on the floor
he has stopped playing
begun to undress reality

but the body of this text
can not be captured
penetrated by the reader's mind
but flies around as painted eyes
on a talking serpent

so he said You
but he meant yes
and the end winds away

vanishes
