The Power of Paranoia

A poem from 1992





















It’s the thing that paranoia is made of

Strange,
but it’s true
that sideward glance that life casts
at me
Unloved at first sight

We find everything
but that which we want
I want her
but how could I find the way
into her heart?

In more menial example
this creeps upon me
and this poem achieves nothing
it is not worth the paper it is written on
