The devilish thing
I neither said or meant
crept up again behind
my crazy eyes and
many kindnesses.
That I do not say

is one of the thousand poisons
I sprinkle upon every
tender of affection and
mix into each sublime prayer.
I make no sense and
mend happiness with sword strokes.
This isn't working you say
and I laugh again.
