three tiers
man
a scary face
two eyes
another scary face
no make up
or cosmetic make over
on the soul of man
like that of a woman
which is deceit
betrayal and all bad things
woman do to man
engraved on the surface
always tripping us
with their cunning
tortoise like man
and hare like woman
who cheats uncompetes
to win the race
will never ever lose face
congregating
proliferating
on my space
memories of her
I can delete
but not erase
woman
luciferously
lighting up a stage
man poor
man avian like
wingless
repeating
word for word
a cockatoo
in her cage
artemisia californica
another name for a sage
my poetry her heart
