Mere

“a hairs width difference to mercifully”

if the dark warms enough

to share a shame

it’s a lark when it’s only

a mere hairs width difference to mercifully

fall on sympathetic ears or

fall further to a pathetic lonely.

*

if the dark warms enough

a good friend would be to blame

it’s a lark when it’s only

a spider’s web mere difference, from the Night or

black inner rooms way back

where only a good friend

will lead you best to less lonely.
