She gambles with gamma rays
Me eyes don’t know what to say
The mind says run but my heart won’t stay away
I don’t want to play these games
Gamma rays are deadly
But so is love
I run for the cover of a supermarket
Rather than take part in your midnight circus
The lotus eaters are at the theater
They speak of love but deny their own teachers
Your face is formed from the ether
While breathing life like feedback from a speaker
I sneak a look at your homework
And check your answers against
The virtuous serpents of my imagination
Ganesha Michael Shapiro
