We run the falling air.
Slam the closing door
And open the vacuum heart with White pure fear.
But I will not
Cannot
Refuse this
And Will not flinch
And will not fall to despair
But stare Satan out and down his gun barrel throat, until a new world comes to squeeze all his putrid filth out.
Do I dare test my faith?
Do I Lilly livered dare believe?
to the uttermost
Yes to the gun point
To the jagged edge.
Sideways to the high blue Sunday sky,
another horizon, another life,
seeps perfume from the rose garden walls of heaven, music faraway, kids playing,
this worlds sepia lustre
receding in the haze
Somewhere very very far away the sea-children laugh and play in the sparkling waves and leaping spray
