Fine White Margin
The principle of evidence
Our will less leaving and taking
From every room we’re in
The eroding white margin
The sometimes intemperate
Fine heaving beneath
Perched on the slightest
Gesture of intent hesitation
Anticipation association
Pronouncing her sentence
Scrutiny rather than friendship
Pale though she may be
Kneeling at the lion’s table
Playing the game where
The puppet gobbles everything
