[00:48.08] |
Comes the golden Light of the Dogday afternoon... |
[00:59.36] |
waiting for the sacred Hour when he comes to my Room. |
[01:10.34] |
He brings me Flowers beautiful, he's been doing that for Years, |
[01:21.35] |
and photographic Memories, Trophies of his... Victories... |
[01:55.39] |
Vouchers of Conquests, boldly flagged, streaming high... on Mass of |
[02:03.44] |
Battle-ships, |
[02:06.97] |
sailing on the troubled Seas, |
[02:10.30] |
Waters of dull Aquaintances, |
[02:16.82] |
spread out on the Blackness here of this shroud-like tablecloth crocheted... |
[02:28.06] |
glossy Evidance of Lust, of all the handsome Men he had. |
[03:01.63] |
Like an Assassin's Game of Cards, |
[03:07.38] |
unshuffled Oracle of Love, |
[03:13.14] |
of one Nightstands, half hearted Loss, |
[03:17.86] |
stolen Kisses, past Jerk-offs. |
[03:24.83] |
Liassons that went nowhere, |
[03:29.21] |
fleeting Moments, without Hope or Care, |
[03:35.53] |
all laid out now before me here |
[03:39.59] |
between Dessert Plates & cups of Tea. |
[03:47.01] |
I feel for him |
[03:51.12] |
as I feel for no other Man, |
[03:57.98] |
but Sadness is the only Thing |
[04:02.71] |
that he and I will ever share... |
[04:57.59] |
Each Polaroid, it bears a young, |
[05:02.32] |
but slightly out-of-focus Face, |
[05:08.74] |
white Teeth exposed in Flashlight-smiles, |
[05:14.25] |
well-defined Bodies, strong & tanned... |
[05:20.68] |
Names & Numbers, Cyphers traced |
[05:25.64] |
like Promises upon each Frame, |
[05:31.35] |
according to the features shown; |
[05:36.18] |
sadly, all poses look the same. |
[05:42.64] |
I hardly speak, I rarely do, |
[05:48.27] |
my role is just to sit & listen |
[05:53.61] |
to the Tales he unfolds, offers to me, |
[05:59.49] |
his palest "Hunt of Agony"... |
[06:05.31] |
the sexless priest, |
[06:07.82] |
the joyless Clown, |
[06:10.98] |
who never judges, only frowns, |
[06:16.65] |
Sipping tea & offering Chocolate Cake, |
[06:21.67] |
for it does concole the Heart that lies in Ache. |
[07:22.00] |
The fading portraits on my walls, |
[07:27.10] |
dead people I have never met, |
[07:32.87] |
unlike his photos, Trophies all, |
[07:38.54] |
decount to Lovers, Men he had... |
[07:44.84] |
I feel for him |
[07:48.12] |
as I feel for no other Man, |
[07:55.42] |
but Sadness is the only Thing |
[08:00.54] |
that he and I will ever share... |
