The sharp eyes of the human being

Your eyes are sharp as razors boiled in wrath
It’s easy to provoke but less to soothe
My hair is protein, do not rip it off

You think you are above us yet we laugh
Your hair curls tightly. men don’t like it smooth
Your eyes are sharp as razors boiled in wrath

Though my hair is tangled I’ve no moths
I have no lice, nor eggs,so do not brood
My hair is protein, do not cut it off

You’ll catch nineteen germs if someone coughs
Stay in Lockdown, banish those who feud
Your eyes are sharp as needles boiled in wrath


,

Take your steely look and make it love
Our eyes can with such kindness be imbued
My hair is protein,I must be a Goth

Life is wasted when we start to feud
Or stick like needles in the rounded gtoove
Your eyes are sharp as hawks sent up in wrath
O tragic world,men hate more than they
love

Pebbles and gay shingle

The shining pebbles on the sea shore sing

The sun rides on the water’s gleaming lines

The tide will beat with pebbles on the groynes.

No good thing can happen by design

Further down is shingle minced and scarred

The faceless little stones push shells about

In a storm the sound is fearful noise

Late at night the lifeboat might go out.

The sea runs on the sand transparent clear

Little children paddle with delight

Like the Wash is, estuaries are you wild

In a moment a girl can disappear.

The little stones the pebbles and the sand

Have no faces, do not understand

Sacred human love is kind

Your face is etched upon my heart.

I knew you in the morning light

Love is wise but never smart.

We have no need of others’ charts

In the mornings and the night

Your face is etched upon my heart.

As we wake from deep sleep dark

To see your face is my delight

Love is wise and sometimes smart

Intuition, craft is art

Love is silent, hatred fights

Your face is etched upon my heart

Human Love can see in part

Face to face we’ll see all’s right

Love is wise love is not smart

Your face is etched upon my heart.

Love is wise but never smart

Is love blind? Who etched the lines?

Sacred, human, love is kind
