Were discovered in a hermit’s rubbish heap
Civilization had pledged to preserve these works
The hermit wanted to throw them away yet it is only
Because of the latter that we know them today

In Front of You

Words always fail
Falling into detail
Even those blouse buttons
Sorry but you thought hard
About those shoes too
But probably not about
Me kissing you this way
You see I see you just as
I always have unchanged
Now is made by then
Then is made by now
Open our present
And close that door
