Description

The Fence - Lenrie Peters

There where the dim past and future mingle
their nebulous hopes and aspirations
there I lie.

There where truth and untruth struggle
in endless and bloody combat, 
there I lie.

There where time moves forwards and backwards
with not one moment’s pause for sighing, 
there I lie.

There where the body ages relentlessly
and only the feeble mind can wander back

there I lie in open-souled amazement

There where all the opposites arrive
to plague the inner senses, but do not fuse, 
I hold my head; and then contrive
to stop the constant motion.
my head goes round and round, 
but I have not been drinking; 
I feel the buoyant waves; I stagger

It seems the world has changed her garment.
but it is I who have not crossed the fence, 
So there I lie.

There where the need for good
and “the doing good” conflict, 
there I lie.
