Your eyes
can melt many hard hearts
But
Your tongue is forked
It hisses and spits
Your body makes extravagant gestures
Encompassing and rejecting
all at once.
Who, and what, is strangling you today?
Certainly it isn't conscience.
Something you learned to put away
Lock in a trunk,
Long ago, when you sold your own heart.
