What happened to the green
where is that white centre
is it my eyes or is it the real
colours muddled up thus
all tattered and scattered
all I see is the look of
stone cast on dry waters
lapping on the gate of hell
all there is are your names
splashed on people's dailies
like faeces on a mirror
the remains of our shame
served out to all comers
like a buffet on a dog's day
every question comes with
the answer within, waiting
for the labour day
every decision comes with
her bones to crack now
or any time soon and...
when actions cast in iron
finally break the stone walls
all shall then be revealed
the weeping will cease and
the blind will begin to see
the answers to the quests.
