HOW I CUT MY NAILS

How I cut and file
My longer nails
The beloved of birth until death
as,
you always grow
to witness
all my pale hues;
The life
in seasoned pain and
gleam of crawling joy

All wedding rings pass through you
All pain remain your silent witness
Still,
Neither you beat a word
Nor you echoes thy pain

How lovingly must I groom and
file your pain
as,
you fall down lifeless
with invisible ooze:
The blood of my heart

My own never care
And I never cared to wipe my eyes
Dear my nail

Still longer shadow linger
To swaddle thy warmth
in a piece of velvety calm

Adieu,adieu
Dear my nail!
That which cul
Grows my shadows tall

How I cut and file
My longer nails...
