WAITING WITH SAD PATIENCE
The man who shines your shoes
brushes your coat polishes your ego
he knows his place
in the human race.
As you go to your urgent meetings
remember those hearts of darkness
in the shadowlands
there may be an answer there
not on your agenda no doubt
waiting with sad patience
to be drawn out.

IN A FUNNY SORT OF WAY
In a funny sort of way I came to like him
and then
in that funny sort of way
I came to like others too who
I didn't much like before
as if my liking was a fondness
for initial dislike itself
an attachment to overcome
and once won a constant challenge
equalled
then I seemed to rise up
not caring so much whether
people suit...
