When was it that you lost your heart?
A galvanized break made of wearing,
Of words and years, parental hardships;
Did they not teach you love through love?

You said you loved the Danny boy idea;
The idea of cares and truest feelings.
A man of something, a man of surface caring.

As grace is a juncture; a hidden point
Where, nuance for nuance the eye is deceived;
Given to holders of nothing to heed.

I feel an immense danger for what’s to come.
There is blankness; a detachment from
What could be, from what I have no ideas about.
I have a feeling it will be of mediocrity.
How horrifying!  


I am the two-toed wanderer
