Until the end
I am Regina Waterhouse. And I have complete faith
that man will keep on going right to the end.
I am the queen here, but the people assure me,
gathered in the square, dust kicked up by their boots,
jacked by their power, that they know
what’s right and I am inclined to agree. All the women
here, crow clothes flapping in the hot wind, sing
free to be who they naturally are. And the men,
ordained by the river, to be more.
I am a Waterhouse and just a god here, but the people
assure me, gathered by their pillars and posts,
that eternity is theirs because I am here. And I –
I am assured — will maintain. And I expect I will,
right unto their end.
