they have been walking, traveling
through heaviest forests and downpouring
to come finally to your enormous gate
must they wait and stay outside then, is that their fate?
i just ask you politely
this is only between you and she
that eye-catcher is all mine,
the eyes have been following through thine
but the matter is still between you and she
i am just the third person singular you’ll never meet
your feet must have become tiresome, that’s it
and the concrete must have gone arid….
