I pretend to study
Reading about Sennacherib
and the tablet of destinies
And in between I would
steal a gaze
It has been sealed
the kingship is his
You flip
a page
He holds the cosmic bond
between heaven and earth
You move
gently
The tablet has been stolen
by the Anzu bird
You have
not cut your hair
The perpetrator must be caught
You look beautiful in white today
I am guilty
I am lost
between
the tablet of destinies
and
your face
