Don't ask me. (sonnet #MMMMMDCCXCIV) Not mine. As if a stranger passing thence From who-knows-where to whither, aught detail Is like the accents you'll set to avail Along with artwork for that ***** sense, Just items in a world that's lost from hence Its varnish. His bare room decked on that scale With table, chairs and knick-knacks, in betrayl Wood toilet seat's in pieces for pretense. Tis naked. Yes, he's glad to see me fer Old times--"Erm [smiling] what's your name 'gain? You-- You're so familiar--" I laugh, to assure Him's fine, aye tease him. Yet why does th'ado, Though fun as ever, strip the dream as twere Of all its trappings? Robt, I love you too. 23Jul16c

My Brother Knew--and I?
Don't ask me now cuz I don't know. (sonnet #MMMMMMMMCDLXXXI) Which day would ye have back? What years t'avail, That ye pine so? What have ye here fr'intents, Or whither do ye go that we from hence Are scrambling all the time? Come, which detail? I have since lo, my youth, been in this (frail Though aught 'scuse) race to yonder with a sense Of where I'm headed and some goal, whilst thence Bedazzled and deceived til now all fail. Was I too picky with my men? Why were There none to take me for his wife or woo And give me his dear ***** for in tour Repose? I ne'er could have a child, then. Rue My folly, yet remain confused? Bestir Me to redeem the time, but LORD, where to? 12.Sep.23c
