Beetlebung and Kettlehole--April Poems

Rear Window

(Rear Window 1954 Hitchcock movie)


how easy it is to watch from afar,
theatrical people
warring in their distant holes
akin to afflictions
within my underworld

for I sail like a pendulum
between thoughts and doubts
so silent and veiled

yet affection lights
your simplest gestures
in my enigmatic darkness

if I could pattern my feet
to stand on their own,
I would open a rear window
to mirrors inside me
to reveal your angelic image
