It’s one difficult to get to grips with - & not
in a disordinate sense, more as inclination
to vaguely avoid its meaning, a pretence if
you like - it isn’t happening; that I suppose
a consequence easier to see than any real
events deflated by your druthers, and gee,
maybe that explains my denial’s extension
into this mood of homme déshabillé - with
veneers ripped away, tho’ pays no heed to
obvious constructs proposed by a regime’s
polishing and cleaning; is he still that man
unclothed of his fantasies, but we’re to sell
this idea right now by hook or by crook
at ‘potential’ meant in saying, expressing
vulnerability is an inept way to sell ideas -
but to be thus & still with meaning lends
chances to begin again, you won’t cease
to exist when you’re newly centre stage
