I want to be shrewd

Oh! Aloneness 

be my deserted partner,

silence 

is not ready 

to play 

gooseberry between 

you 

And me any more. 

Inner pain wants to whine,

tears want 

to trickle 

And 

I want to be shrewd.

Owning 

the suffrage for life, 

I don't want 

to look back 

even for her 

salaciousness 

That 

would ever dare 

to allure.
