Violent Voices Poem by Gary Diamond

my poise and my position.
will give my game away.
turn the lights out before you go to bed.

i'm done following tradition.
i think that i've been swayed.
turn the lights out before you go to bed.

one of you here knows something i don't.
well i know something you don't.
i can figure yours out
but you can't touch mine.
i'm not in for consulation
i'm only playing my game.

which you can't figure out.
which you can't follow through.
give me a run in series.
make it hold true.
