Do Not Fool Yourself Father Poem by Martin Lochner

Do Not Fool Yourself Father



smoking, having a cup
of tea

fathers eroded cunning
face

talks gospel, salvation
and resurrection

pointing me
begging

'talk to me boy'

there is nothing to say
speculate all you want

think circles
think squares
think triangles

keep all your paper bound
existential geometrics

there is no back door
daddy

no escape
no rescue


no cause to run away


when the time comes
i am done here.
