The poem 
is life that betrays its costumе 
and puts its hand in the fire 

the challenge 
that dares to follow through 

like pressing language 
to extract silence

like knifing for revenge 
appearances that kept us down 

like dying your back to the wall 
faced by the unknowable 

choosing the just meаsure above the rule 
the poem fully accepts its failure 

hence love that goes 
against fact 
and towards vertigo 

there where desire 
is no longer the prey of strategy
