Sounds like ****
-:/:-
Angry insistence on our RIGHT to be angry
( okay )
The RIGHT to ruthlessly retaliate (?)
COME LET'S WALK TOGETHER FOR AWHILE
••
hush /-: -/ wait
Until the children stop screaming
:-:
All the wisdom crumpled up
Thrown to the floor
/:/
The gentle simple humanity
( what's that -- ? )
COME WALK THE STARK NIGHT ON YOUR OWN
••
Little Joey Sweet Kiss
ain't here
Just the prostitutes and the pimps
And the johns and the pain
Yes the pain
The indescribable pain is here
(& you -- is that you there ?)
••
The pages -- torn pages
the monumentally vast pages
The pained poetical sensibilities
Torn and swirling
In the night winds eddies
Twisting grotesquely
In the alleyways
Where OUR children are sleeping
Wailing and weeping
WHO LEFT THEM THERE?
after the love and the lust and the games
That created them are too boring to be played
Out on THE STAGE anymore
••
and then of course
The years
Our Unfathomable sadness
Totally immune
To
Our rage and our fear
