THE THINGS YOU DON’T SEE
The thing you don’t see in me
is fear
of alone
or a workout
with my sphere of
influence not faded.
As you troop
your colours
about the faded park,
don’t forget to get a loan
from a shark-nett about which
you will always
be then and not
here. It is not
the right-wing that does
it for me
it is the wrong thing
to be able
to make it here
and there
among the right-ist
and left-ist
stadium of
the light
and sorrow
of
all
men.
