Lies

by Uriel Tovar

The stars lit a lie tonight
             --i thought they might
                    have shown me destiny:

The fading sparkle of stars are caught
in your eyes.
               I saw you dragging their trail
                              in your hair.
You caught Orion           with your whip
                 and dragged Hercules
                    Down
                       the drain...

with you.
                  
      Without you the senseless thoughts
                              have gained
                                sensations--
             Syphillis seems a lot kinder than
star gazing.

Well, certainly more tangible...I was delicately drawn down into the pit :)
