new poem
#poetry #poetrylovers #poetrycommunity @poets

How to think with carpal tunnel Before the blank page, the empty mind appeared and faded away like a wet stone spot. The music was always implied, the notes imprinted on the wind by fruit and gust of bird wing, by the distance and immediacy of a storm cloud swallowing the sky. No blacker ink than the pupil spill of your eye, nor youth as misleading, mirroring a long gone blue when the sight goes dark. Too much waiting poisons the body, I think: thumbs in shambles, wrist rotten. Before the journal, the footprint: a comma marked in mud. Just take the boot. Push the pin past the horizon there before you, the one you've sung to boredom in all your looking spared of sight. More than what your hands can hold, a road, whether you take it or not.

    I AM poem I am usually sleepy The faint mirage of my mother's daughter Overwatered, a drunken cactus Behind the camera, watching wincing At the woman on screen I am a girl who looks like me A face I ought to recognize After hours Of looking for myself Peripherally As one might spot a hidebehind A myth among the trees
