Like a brick\

\

like bricks and weights and infections\

\

anxiety and grave neurosis\

\

like a word used but not yet understood\

\

like pain\

\

dull, dull throbbing pain\

\

a hand within a chest\

\

islands betwixt seas removed\

\

galaxies and stars and dreams and space\

\

a cursed book, curse its powers\

\

curse my heart and curse my love\

\

curse the peace\

\

its wretched dove\

\

incompatible, and duly forced\

\

fault\

\

where lies the white glove?\

\

done unto myself;\

Love seeketh only Self to please,\
To bind another to Its delight:\
Joys in another's loss of ease,\
And builds a Hell in Heaven's despite.

\

for This is true\

\

I warn you all\

\

to watch yourself before you fall\

\

and tumble, tumble\

\

trip and graze\

\

grieve for all the better days\
