We try to
find you in
our own
way--see
you in the
demands we
make and
the sin
of our hearts--
aspiring Greek
gods.
But, you
are not there
and so we
cannot crown
ourselves
because we
do not look
like you.
So we
throw down
the throne
and make a
new one out
of sores and
gold, but
we find our-
selves allergic
to it.
