Twin Sisters
Damning two lies
with only one truth
Deception remixes
like gin and vermouth
Jumping from one
as the other got hot
Port in the storm
where perdition is fraught
Grace in short order
with blessings denied
Thomas redoubting
all faith circumscribed
Prevarication
twin sister of pain
The Word caught between them
—trapped to remain
(The New Room: July, 2023)
