Wheels within wheels <br />Lines between lines <br />Persons inside persons <br /> <br />So many innuendos <br />hypocrisy.. <br /> <br />Misaffection <br />silences that gouge <br />deep gaping wounds <br /> <br />Lavished briefly <br />with a salve of <br />sweet words <br /> <br />And then you're <br />back to being a <br />stone man - <br />stone-heart, stone-mind <br /> <br />With a double edged knife <br />to twist in my soul <br /> <br />I am <br />after all <br />yours. <br /> <br /> <br />2 Apr, '91<br /><br />Usha Pisharody<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/double-speak/
