Sacrifice (The Critical Heart)

"Beauty" is arrogance,
its guilt of which is proved
by association
[with]--Art,
virtue's harbinger--[and] with
the blade by which
the accountable heart
is cleft, its ventricles
torn from one another
(the organ, by words, in
metaphor: it bleeds; while
images:
may be defined
by the visceral splinter
that remains),
and we: are anesthetized,
our ulcerated insides,
cauterized, and we find
ourselves, at once, and
at last, drained: move on,
our wound
--which, after all,
was never clearly defined--
our astrictive sacrifice.
