You are my black hole
you can never be filled...

Oh brother!
where art thou...

I try to
but I guess I need a stranger...

I get the "fear"
from time to time...

"Once bitten twice shy"
is a phrase I wish...

I thought as a murderer
just to see if I could...

I let the curtains breathe
as the ceiling ripples...

Naked to endless strangers
a stark procession...

Those Tolkien ears
a snack for years...

I'll not be eating this away
to try at all creates dismay...

The trick of it is
diminishment of once was great...

A different angle
a shade or two dimmer...
