    Triangles of half-open doors
    Reveal all the truth that is hidden:
    Just condoms and cans on the floor,
    Black papers with verses, forbidden -
    Unfinished remakes of the song,
    Deprived of the right to speak loud
    Of wicked intentions gone wrong -
    Erasers have muffled the shout.

    The only illusion-proof mind -
    A poet, the voice of despair,
    Sincere, the one of this kind
    Throws verses far into the air
    Right there, in a dirty old flat
    Among once great talents, now rotten.
    They all have deserved more than that,
    But even their names are forgotten.

    I really like it. Very gritty, my kind of poem.
