speak to me
breathe . . .
your fresh wounds of erosion
words you never wanted me to hear
breathe
into my ear
that you finally understand
nothing on this earth is free
especially love
tell me you know I've been right
even when
beguiled by perfume and soft lips
I have discovered
it's compulsory to liberate oneself
from public decency in order
to live decently
it isn't too late you know
I know you think you've freed yourself
so why then are you still crying

I'm thinking the same thing about truth,
Blues, there is, and has been, much untruth going on.
