Poems
Dec 2022
My Body Reads You The Way I Cannot
Softly seeping into a rhythm of uncertainty
And unknowingly a soft summer breeze
Turns into a turbulent and terrifying tornado
I pretend I am an avid consumer of literature
Of Frost of Whitman and Angelou
Yet I couldn’t comprehend the shift in the weather
Or it could have been that I did not want to understand
How sunlight stinging the back of my eyelids
Could become puddles soaking through my socks
And ruining my favorite sneakers
Alas I skipped joyfully home
With the memory of sunshine in my pocket
And rain flooding the gutters
