    cannot be called fair
    finding my best socks missing
    I must dance barefoot!

    I must dance barefoot
    feel the floor under my feet
    yours moving with mine

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    yours moving with mine
    as I speak in pantomime
    your heavenly lips!

    your heavenly lips!
    that angels should bleed so well,
    through bared teeth: a smile?

    Through bared teeth: a smile?
    Or a ravenous lion?

    but no easy getaway
    soon as our eyes locked

    there was a kind of crisis.
    What did I feel? Fear?

    felt a bit haunted!
    autumn leaves and spinal chill
    cat eyes, midnight moon.

    cat eyes, midnight moon
    how they reflect each other
    cat blinks, short eclipse

    Cat blinks, short eclipse
    resident respite of mouse,
    gets away again!

    under hunting moon
    woodsman's footprints mud impressed
    wolf howls through the haze
