www.bluetyger.ca main page The Chapel of Confusion by William J. Gibson
Issue 23 - in early September, 2003

who do you see when you watch
the clouds roof over
the chapel of your confusion

the old familiar cat-like women
you used to hate after
you loved them badly
in total confusion
and reduced to
self pity and high cholesterol

it is not a hobby
and is certainly not a career.
"Cheer up. It is only your life."

Time to read another book, wall up
and slip away, the complex dance
of the old bear on the mirror ice
another cartoon
keeping an eye out for Olive Oyl

I am what I am, said the sailor
with the funny forearms.
Sounds about right.
