He made so many of us
When we talk to ourselves
on a busy street and we are not
talking into a cellphone
he smiles
When we start arguments out of nothing
and imagine persecution
so person we bleed, literally we bleed
he wants to cry
When we miss the rent because
we had to spent the only money we had
on a Krazy Kat clock with ping pong eyes
it is fulfilling as if this
was what the universe was for
When we weep ourselvbes to sleep
because we can't seem to change
and we drive everyone we love
out into the night cursing
it matters, it matters a great deal to him
Must must love crazy people or why
would he make them the way that they are
impossible to put with
and unhealable as disease
Hhe loves us because
we remind him of him
Incomprehensible
to the heart
