Notes About The Poem

Enigmatic Bruise

In your eyes
           huge vacuum 
                  sleazy
                       step forward, says.
                                 implore forgiveness

You strive for blandness.
                        better way
                                       endears 
                                              sightless saw
                                                           a speck

Fear query
           hold you in shackles      
                       horrifyingly bruised
                               him
                                    as haystack needle.



                                             (Yalto)
