Apart
What’s happening in this entangled time
of fear and strife? Where do we go from here?
Does no-one hear the bell of slanting chime?
Sure it will hurt. Do feelings disappear?
With having doubts the mind’s a puppeteer.
We come across, but won’t accept from
another man, dive into another scrum
and then let go before the lot is piled.
All humans clash, all grasp seems getting numb
in either sex, and with that for the child.
