Say what you wish, now we're alone
inside our common dread.
I will not speak to criticise,
for time we squeeze in clapping hands
must not slip free to run like sands,
through fingers hot and swollen red.
I say so little anymore,
of consequence or worth.
Since youth bowed out, exit stage left,
and credence left on cue,
this play has gone from bad to worse.
