55 Calypso
The cruel mind is a
Watched kettle like
Fire in vindictive hands
Poured sideways on
Narrowing stones.
A good mouth speaks
Afraid, and faintly thick of heart
In light air,
Scented full
Fine beasts, we say,
“We never saw a stupid thing”
But walked through gentle summer doors
As greed slowly filled our bent eyes
