even then

uneven time

even then

the salted wound

even then

the men, the men

and the women were something to fear

even now

the memory post it

even now

given grace by a story

the knowing look

away from the stage

where you have chosen to be

where you will age

even then

uneven now

even then

departing gloom

even then

the men, the men

and the women are something to fear
