Glass Houses

Although I knew you lived in a glass box

I was unaware (until yesterday)

How fragile you are.

- They say there is a pitch

A tone beyond the human ear

That shatters brittle transparency

Yesterday

I came to you and turned the key

In your door

Discovered crystal splinters

In your bed

What shoud have been your head

Dripped across the floor

Liquid gleamings

- But I swear

I made no sound

I swear.

So these poems are not yours? Or are they? Are you creating mystery? Which I like!
