libera volo

published: 6-8-2016

 

my eyes are perfectly functional
I’m not stumbling around directionless
it may be in the dark
but I know perfectly well where I am

I’m not missing a piece
at least in the way you constantly shriek I am
a lover may invent a void inside of me
and cure it before I am even aware what happened

I am not stolen away into contempt
I have been stolen away in fondness
the touch of my two hands clasped together is not what pleases me
one of them must be hers or his (whoever they are)

I am not bathed in blood and rivers
or swaddled in white and pronounced clean
I am purified in sheets of maroon and cream
the only promises binding over me are my own
