An An Alone Gathering- -
aN An Alone Gathering- -
'Loneliness!' I, 'think I am of alone.'
Alone in the spirit, mind and tongue
Alone whole always known
This that I am alone
That splendid homesickness
Wishes for the gatherings
the stage fright brought such sorrow
I wished for not to borrow
In there stepped a nagging helplessness
Much I marveled this lonely deadliness, yet
The lonely, longing, lurching thus I’m not rehearsing
I heard of the lonely, I am one
Loveless soling beyond help
in near stepped a shod purposelessness
that moment my soul grew more lonely
I heard a single, insecure racketing
All my mind and soul in me racketing
I remember I was desolating
My mind always strays to insecurities
Much I marveled the vagrant lonesomeness
Come together with the many have not no one an enemy
