Locks
Is this the only way?
Should we always bond in pairs
until we reach our last day
and Death our pledge spares?
Do we have to be like this
you the lock and I the key
pretending we are slaves of bliss
sharing an unshared flesh decree?
Do you remember your old box?
The one you filled with locked desire
well, I think mine broke
and dreams spilled and caused the fire.
Ulysses A.
