You open to me	A
a little	B
then grow afraid	C
and close again	D
a small boy	E
fearing to be hurt	F
a toe stubbed	G
in the dark	H
a finger cut	I
on paper	J
	-
I think I am free	A
of fears	K
enraptured abandoned	L
to the call	M
of the Bacchae	N
my own siren	O
tied to my own	P
mast	Q
both Circe	K
and her swine	R
	-
But I too	S
am afraid	C
I know where	T
life leads	K
	-
The impulse	K
to join	U
to confess all	M
is followed	V
by the impulse	K
to renounce	K
	-
and love	W
imperishable love	W
must die	X
in order	J
to be reborn	Y
	-
We come	Z
to each other	J
tentatively	A
veterans of other	J
wars	K
divorce warrants	K
in our hands	K
which we would beat	A2
into blossoms	K
	-
But blossoms	K
will not withstand	B2
our beatings	K
	-
We come	Z
to each other	J
with hope	C2
in our hands	K
the very thing	D2
Pandora kept	E2
in her casket	I
when all the ills	K
and woes of the world	F2
escaped	G2
