poem

Rejection

I had no questions when she left
In silence I defected
A light beteemed by eyes of seraphs
Was all that I detected

And now outside chimeras dance
And every sound becomes
A voice that speaks another’s trance
Another’s fate undone

There is no place for great souls in society as it exists. For man and woman both, they must seek their fullfillment outside—in crime and in death.
Simone de Beauvoir
