Going my own runaway way
hailed like a returning hero
yet I will not beg to differ.
You see me frozen as in flesh
still, until the glacier - imperceptible
creature of myth, awe and danger.
We broke some bottles, rules and pentagrams
up on the Western rise
so what invoked this sudden ardour?
After all, you did not even stay
to watch those visuals in verse.
