I Think I Knew

theres no talking to him

his eyes are upon dust steam and tepid water

i am home just to sit with him

aging at the notion of a life time on earth

whim

theres no working it out

my wanting is beyond all fears of formula

theres no boundry to devotion

no territory to handle and cut neatly into

three

i wish i knew x6

no sign on the door

no title to the deeds im digging for

a pun you wade into that ocean

blot out all uncertainty

and call it as i

be

the air is all ribbons of ice

softening the corners of my eyes

i was bold

i was the author

doubt crept in like sickly dogs

and dragged me thru the

freeze

i wish i knew x6

i think i knew x6

what did you want

-everything

how would you have heard

-on my knees

there is noone that can be opened

this one to cut the heart in two

the other one to

choose

i wish i knew x6

i think i knew x12
