You may ask the mirror Show me perfect hair That the room entire might welcome you Then When laying out your raiment What am I to wear? Slipping on the thread that wears you
Hung like fallen scarves on a street wall For returning hands to find Stripped by magazines in the yearning Of waiting rooms for authors to your time
The days will fly like pink confetti Your fists unfurled But if you land the blow Everybody gets hurt You learn the lines by rote, not knowing which words to keep They switch them while you sleep So rouse yourself to brief The Impervious Me
You may sift for summer Such horizons there Throw a wheel and trust it turns for you Then go and ask your mirror What of me to share? Am I in the place I left you?
Strung like silver chimes in a doorway For a passing breeze to sound Loosed like falling leaves out of reason Seasoned to be motif for the ground
The days will fly like pink confetti Your fists unfurled And if you land a blow Everybody gets hurt You learn your lines and note by measure which words you'll need You gift them when you sleep So steel yourself and greet the Impervious me Imperviously
The days will fly like pink confetti Your fists unfurled And if you land the blow Everybody gets hurt You learn your lines by rote, not knowing which words to keep They gift them while you sleep So steel yourself to meet...
