"Missing Links"
Tracing the outline of objects with my eyes
Outlining every texture and thought
Where is the truth in the lies?
Where is the screwdrivers locked bolts?
Where is the sunglasses of darkness?
Where is the scissors of hatred?
Where is the rings of love?
Where is the buttons in sex?
Where is the socks of aroma?
Where is the pens of inked stories?
Where is the necklace I bought you?
Where is the big foot monster who is under our beds?
Where are these missing links?
Chains of events
Things of the past
Gone for good
Missing!
