write himself between the lines
and not at the end of them
forget himself between the writing
and not at the end of them
greet himself between the poems
and not at the end of them
want himself between the shelves
and not at the end of them
put himself between the poets
and not at the end of them
find himself between the covers
and not at the end of them
a poet shouldn't impose himself between,
at the end,
not even at the start

forget himself between the writing

greet himself between the poems
and not at the end of them
want himself between the shelves

put himself between the poets
and not at the end of them
find himself between the covers
and not at the end of them
a poet shouldn't impose himself between,

Meta-poetry with a great sense of irony.
