These wild ways;
a slight smile
to see that
radiant stillness abides.
Your shine,
you hide.
Run if you like,
I see you.
Sure, pretend away;
slip a pane of glass
between us, too late –
I see you!
Your lips speak
Of holding, of caressing;
Why not just
Go all the way?
I know it's what
You really want.
You can't fool me,
I've been around the block!
Stop tormenting yourself.
Okay, there can be fun in it
trying this way and that,
head hung over.
You say you need practice.
Oh yes, trucks and dolls,
spiders and snakes,
toys, why not?
"Mmm", you say.
"Best get to know each other -
friends first!" ... Did I mention that
I see you?
Why not cut past the chase?
Oh, I see,
you don't think you'll
be able to handle it.
True, True.
But it's already too late;
I know the way...
I see you.
