Mute
---
my impatient god ushers me
into another world.
just the same i lurk
to take a different look.
so i sit by, on a sill waiting—
still my fangs have nothing to show
just the quiet of my eyes looking
at an ape’s mute lion mask.
and i croon yes and let out a swoon
as i witness the vile art
staining a shy canvass
and in between i am
in a distance trying to measure
how long its going to take.
shall i steal my god’s dimension?
