I could finally cross
Experience’s door
Slap on muddy war-paint, understanding.
When before I forgave
Those years hours days
Now, I ask – how could you?
My nucleus, my radiant love
A firefly gasping in an un-holed jar
How could you. How could you.
Froggy doesn’t know
He’s been set to boil
The prisoners assume
The building’s helpless too
See the doughy martyr
See the skinny saint
How could you, how could you, how could you -
