      ▪ for Harriet

      What is the language using us for?

      It uses us all and in its dark

      Of dark actions selections differ.

      I am not making a fool of myself

      For you. What I am making is

      A place for language in my life

      Which I want to be a real place

      Seeing I have to put up with it

      Anyhow.
