Thawed From A Deepening Freeze Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Thawed From A Deepening Freeze



Oh yes...
I am going to push you to the edge!
I want you stripped of masquerades.
I want charades you parade depleted.
I want much more,
Than substitutions you portray!
Oh yes...
I am going to push you to the edge.
I want that reality you have yet fed!
I want what I know is hidden underneath!
And since you only allow me just sneak peeks...
I want you unmasked!
Release that 'freak' you tease to free!
Oh yes...
I am going to push you to the edge.
Until you realize how foolish your alibis.
And keeping up disguises...
Keeps a freedom enclosed and denied!
Oh yes...
I am going to push you to the edge!
Until you have discovered you have lead...
A falsity frozen,
You need thawed and warmed over...
From a deepening freeze!
You think suitable and enough to please!
