Five Last Words

I.
I am the guttersnipe wretch
Walking midnight streets with broken hands,
Pools of tepid water sucking at my feet.

II.
Wanderer, dreamer, little lost soul,
I am the one left out in the cold,
And I will walk
And I will run
To sleep in the darkness when the sun must come.

III.
A fetish for falling

IV.
Gemini countenance:
A twin for all seasons!
Exclusion, reclusion,
Criminal grievance.

V.
I will walk into the dark
Willingly
And perhaps this sacrifice
Will be
Enough
