In a stretch of suspicious silence
I invented some noise and
voices. Drunken shouts and screams startled me.
Nobody asked us for our truths. But we believe
in Almighty -- Almighty we stand, all amazed --
that ours is some neat or impossible trick in a world that
regrets so completely.
Stare down your walls, save your faded palls,
your taste for tears and for tired eyes.
And we, we hope against hope that
we someday hear what we will hear.
But what are you going to tell me tomorrow?
What will you say to me then?
