Back Seat In A Cab To Somewhere Poem by Joan Xie

Back Seat In A Cab To Somewhere

Rating: 5.0


He glances at me in the mirror
razor-sharped his glance in the back mirror

He who sees me knew the naked me
He who sees me quivered a child in me
He who sees me nibbled a fruit from my youth
He who sees me dissected my prior life
He who sees me foretold my next life
He who sees me prevented me to open the door
He who sees me wrote the scripts before I was on the stage
He who sees me drew up a hot bath
He who sees me took out a pill of hallucination
He who must die with me
He who must crowd a tomb with me

His razor-sharped glance is so familiar to me
His familiar glance cuts into me like a sharp razor

I tap the glass partition

STOP PLEASE STOP
I DON'T WANT TO GO ANYMORE
LET ME DOWN HERE
