Seeing With Clarity

eyewear









it’s only been since March
you protest – just nine months
not a lifetime wasted


not as if I didn’t want them 
repaired but a day expended
thus seemed too much to pay 


Heaven’s sake sunglasses don’t 
make that much difference even
if they’re tinted reactively 


one wonders what I missed since 
seeing this with great clarity as a 
miniscule perversion of shame
