It's that spot on the wall.
Where wolfish shadows play,
Uncoffined eyes dancing
On their leash, hooked
To that spot on the wall.
Swept empty by soft fingered
Brooms, gaunt ribs tonguing
Their cage, white fowls pecking
At that spot on the wall.
The most important crime
Must be repeated, eyelashes
Knocking at the door; the most
Important crime.
It's that spot on the wall.
