OBJECT: RELATIONS
hours on weeks of dim ceiling light strips through blind
man's voice gentle mature kind accepting but not grasping all & I cannot see your face
& I am not held though reduced to lonely pained infancy in a little room
on my back in silence you tell me I need years of this & with righteous tears I leave you
having learned to walk out doors to get away from a place of care where no one's wholly there c2001 EOS |
