Reaching out

The world has shut me out

Yet again with tireless hands I strive

To rip apart forever the veil

Of invisibility

♦

 My mind has shut it out

Yet faithful lackey, it hurts and beats

Pulsing through a stormy world so full

Of incompatibility

 ♦

My heart has been about

Woman of an only man I dive

Into a men’s sea, alone I sail

Shredded multiplicity

 ♦

My soul is tall and stout

Multi-faceted being it pleats

Rare tug-o-war I push and I pull

Into loveless infinity
