[bodytext] => leave the man alone, perhaps . . . though we are never quiet alone. still fitting, if we choose. there is no end . . . without an end. also no prelude. his heart-shaped box is somehow wanton & fragil . . . now . . . behold. in multitudes the emptiness, the nothingness it grows. it seems to take up all the room & makes the air seem hot. the space about the emptiness seems sometimes what it's not . . . forget the words, time & again you thought you heard him say. it's not the speech, always the voice that time pretends . . . decay. thin thread do nimble fingers play. unraveling truth, it falls away & to & fro, the haunting tune my harp-strings' death before the noon . . . before the shadows' cast ado. no tremor now, at all, for you. our discontent at last, now through. my issues sheltered by the throne. we're not alone . . . . . . we're not alone although my halo appears intact, reclaimed, askew . . . unkept sitting among the daffodils I thought of you & wept. profound & painful as we drift. too far are we from home . . . to find & mend, my long, lost friend. we're not alone . . . never alone . . .
