You call from
nowhere: disturb
my peace.
We play the
same blockade
your voice resounds
mine does the same.
You dance your
dance of love
if that’s its
name: we’ve
reached
checkmate.
What is this
love that can’t
be lived?
Two players
crippled on the
stage of time.
You call
from nowhere
plead my name
but no one wins
this losing game:
this parry.
