keeps


the lie keeps
close to the chest
warm and wet
unrealized
in its simplicity
the complicities
of the implications
have no place
interwoven between
hand on hand on
skin on bone
on lie
close to the chest

Beautiful: the poem and the picture. EmilyD, Edna St. Vincent, LouiseG - all would be proud.
