JUDAS

Sometimes only a poem can speak it:

Judas

I beckoned you to forgotten rooms
We shared our secrets
Bared cherished dreams
Some were still born
Or had you stolen them
In the clandestine night
Beneath Diana's orb
And its watchful gaze

I called him brother
Gave him shelter
Even when the only danger
Was the reflection of
Narcissus

Years flicker passed
The camera lens
But only some boys
Will morph in to
Men

Universes melt away
What perhaps was never
Truly there

It wasn't Mercury

When I awake to this damnable reality
It has come to pass just what was meant to be
The looking glass
The betrayal of thee
The discovery of Judas
A return to me
