UNVEILED ISIS
How can a man call back the woman
Who no longer sees him; for in loving
The only lesson we learn is letting go.
Maybe you’re still here lost love; in what
Corner are you? For you gathered unto
Yourself all manner of inconspicuousness
You knew too much about everything and
Like Isis you did not unveil it too me; this
Is why men are guilty in their overreach.
Like taking in a flag at the presentation of
A military funeral, you entombed forever
The reasons for you taking your abrupt leave.
But because of my more than “Wuthering
Heights” obsession, like Heathcliff, I will
Not let your ghost leave. I must unveil Isis.
