William Shakespeare. Romeo and Juliet: · Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye · O, mickle is the powerful grace that lies



Too Many You's
today i present as the essential bruise:
clad primarily in blacks and blues,
shirt, jumper, tights and shoes,
positively funereally i cruise
through a traffic jam of undeniable clues
to the doorway of the old, dreaded news:
today i was beat up, felt those rusty screws
trespass a heart jerked and dried into snack-sized chews;
read a prophetic headline: "faithless man woos,
"trusting woman bound to lose"
