I Watch the Ants

I watch the ants, marching
Inexorably from the dead
Bird's eye

Future memory: locusts gnaw
My bones as wild, black tears crawl
Down my lover's face. 

Wind, rain, falling leaves;
Is this new world any
Different
From the old? Still
We cry, still we die. 

Still can't fly, weighted by
Withered love. 
My darling, I never
Understood her;
I promised her moonshine
Not the moon, 
Toasted it a thousand
Times and still she
Calls me liar. 
Do you see why?
Perhaps but her blinded eyes
Never will. 

I opened mine just yesterday only
To see distinguished people play
Private parts in public places. 
What good is
It for her to
See again?
