Tattered Guard

rows and rows

your threadbare

unique dazzling eyes

darlin don’t stare

it’s unkind

 

a poster on a wall has no choice

but you dear

call the shots

your eyes

icy they dream

on mine

dear I don’t mind

 

rows and rows

tidy and unclean

the bareness shows

obscene

you know

 

lay down your tongue

rest the soul inside

muscles glare

in my headlights

you stare

I’ll never see

beyond worn rugs and vales
