MOLE-BLIND, by                    
First Line: Conscious of fine
Last Line: For smiling grows shorter.
Subject(s): Reality


Conscious of fine
Concern is her movement
And so proud and hard
In its reaching pulse
That now it would seem belittled
By a lesser phase,
A finish, an assurance.

Now in tenderness she lies;
Without her is cold blindness
But she will seek again,

Mildly sensing her reality
That is not of the living
But does not leave with those gone.

The emptiness of wanting
Creeps on her as time
For smiling grows shorter.
