third time lucky?

thrice denied yesterday
three times more today

what is it that i really hope to find
and, by finding, hope to realize?
i don't know i really don't

yet the spydawoman insisted i do
i think you know
(she said)
read between those lines,
dammit.


i have - and they were my words
my lines - i wrote them
but i still don't know
i really don't

tomorrow
i'm turning my back on
denials in triplicate
taking a breather from
sussing out the nos

maybe when i've exhausted the towering haystacks of nos
i would find a single tiny shiny yes
my holy grail

if anyone in the future attempts to decipher your poetry -you'd be like james joyce.

p/s: the holy grail is reputed not to be a chalice but a woman - the descendent of jesus, and in france heh. in the da vinci code.
