Train of Thought 8th Nov. 2017
From an answer to a question
that raises yet more questions
from intrusion to confession
where then do answers lie?
Having seen yourself embroiled
in the toils of Messalina
To have fallen for a 'schemer,'
did it turn you to a dreamer,
how soon before, again, you'd mount
the horse that threw you off?
How wary did it make you of
the pitfall traps of life?
From an answer to a question
that raises yet more questions
how soon before you'd trust enough
to call another, "Wife?"
and while questions run in train,
as silence closes over them,
from an answer to a question
that raises yet more questions
from intrusion to confession
no answer need apply.
