DISCLAIMER: Title belongs to JMS, WB, all that sort of crew. Thanks.



You can't
know

what it means- the
meanness
of the totally
alone

I stare
imprisoned

knowing this means- final
meaning
I cannot deny
death

and as I stare
into its maw
knowing I escaped
and you did not

and you did not
know I would embrace
raw hatred for you
as I stare

into your choice
my own removed
rawness, meanness
solitude.

And you can't know

what it means- the
love
of the totally
embraced

I shake
imprisoned

knowing I love- in phantom
loving
I can smell
your breath
