Between Deceptions.

Between the pit and the gallery,

The light and the shadow,

The wire and the wake-up

And the wire again.

Great looming brick and threat presence

Of prison and rails –

Necessary, but not welcome here –

Old bones and sharp knives

In teenage hands,

Living

For the fence,

For the flash:

Angels out of their

Deception-depths.
