untitled 6/07


you are clad in the form you have chosen
and there is a delay of expectancy in your eyes,
the trepidation of a filly wearing a Sunday dress

but as trendy as you may appear,
you are the first one
not to be persuaded by your masquerade
i am the embarrassed second

what chimerism may occur with camoflauge?

on her response to my announcement

And what response did your mother make
To that announcement which never came
To those words you never had the courage to say
Nor the conviction to pronounce?
Was it your intention to have her guess
Or perhaps to hope she never would?
Did you never think of
The hurt
The pain
You cause by deceit and circumspection?
Did you never think of
The warmth
The love
The acceptance
The chances
The hope
You (E,R) might miss
By leaving this work to others?
