Find the lines unnearthed, unchanged |
|
No reason to stay in here, in guise |
|
(When the cat runs away and the milk has gone sour) |
|
Old disguise |
|
Write it down and send it off, decide |
|
(Pulling up all the rugs and exposing the dust, nowhere to hide) |
|
No disguise |
|
Choose to write the story |
|
Sitting in a room where the air now stands still |
|
Open eyes |
|
Counting the pages |
|
Each grain of salt |
|
Open air exposed new form |
|
Walk ahead in time to meet resolve |
|
(This will keep out the rain, windows let in the light |
|
Here with new eyes) |
|
Read the whole thing backwards |
|
Written in a room where the air now stands still |
|
Undisturbed |
