Best Aloysius Poems

I see him lounge beneath the pecan tree, 
nursing his alcohol as he hides from his young cousins. 
They want to play army men with him some more,

Sister Aloysius rings the bell
iron-railing straight she stands 
habit flapping blackly
her triple-bolted thin-lipped smile
pursed against assault, or love,

but keep away, keep away
for I've no interest in...

That shops at Tiffany's. 
And he grants all her wishes.
Seems easier than Explain....

TITLE : one silly truth 

I never knew I never knew 
that the truth  
That give birth to life hurts 
That promises sleeps with conditions
That the repented heart 
Must avoid restitution
That forgiveness and love 
Works narrowly 
But may never meet
Love is hate
But hate can't...
