for sidney - 30.1.96
the light left my life
I didn’t want to live myself
all that was left
was to wait until
I was found
and returned to birth
people called me
and asked me how I was
but the answer was - I wasn’t
how could I be anything
with a hole in my chest
where my heart used to be
at night I would dream
of floating through the ether
hallucinations
visions of my past
outside
nothing hurt me
until morning
down I crashed
to earth
with pain and crying
and headaches
jaws
and pain!
oh, stop it
stop it, someone!!
(asleep, I speak his name)
