(A season 7 poem)
Is there anything you don't know everything about?
You say, and I say something glib
Because I can't begin to list
The things I should but have not understood
And you, my black lacuna, top my list
My greatest failure and my blindest spot
The second child my watching eyes forgot
I left you worse equipped than her
At least the slayer knew that it was dark
But you, the one eyed boasting queen
You knew your way
You'd marked your path.
Then, with a harsh metallic crack
You were a monster in a girlskin suit
I'll never tell you how it felt to see
You as a stalking nightmare
Bearing down on me
With darkness pouring from your eyes
Black iceberg tip of what was underneath
I saw you coming long before
But I stepped back and shrugged it off
There's no excuse
I've nothing I can say
Except ? don't wonder why I'm playing Dumbledore
I'm merely ?hardly - evening the score.
