We shut the night out;
Bears and beasts and others like us.
Teeth, cold; and the
Monstrous echoes.
Black eyes over tea steam and
Despair.
(As if kissing made it better.)
I don't think I could sleep tonight.
Keep the light on instead, and
By blanketed Devon morning, cover up and
Carry on
Sparse and fasted.
Of course I do all the wrong things.
