Completely we are surrendered
willing partners
of our own knowledge
time and space suspended briefly
while the threads of our emotions wear thin
the fabric that shielded us from reality;
boundaries formed
testing natures calling
her will and her strength
pulled us in opposite directions
as the seeds of
our destruction implanted
themselves in the hollow
of our souls; lost and wondering,
soiled and degraded, we
bandied about
courageous and determined
reeked from our garments
shedding our cocoons when
our final transformation
molded our wings of wax;
superficial sounds stole the
noise from the 6 o’clock train
marking the end of another day;
self-incrimination and our
lost willingness merged us
into an ultimate understanding
which close friends must have,
allowing the fullness of our
complete knowledge to protect
and listen to the
patterns of our growth.
October 7, 1982
