Poems
Feb 2015
blank
in the moments when the words will not come
i sit and admire the wonder of emptiness
a mind with no need to express
a simple piece of unchallenged mystery
how could i want this to last?
no more pretty words would come again
i’ll just put down my pen and go to bed
and leave another would-be poem unsaid
why do i write?
because it might take off someday?
or help me see the light?
or prove that i am gay?
in the hours when the words won’t come
the silence and emptiness fill me
a mind at rest and dumb
the uncontested mystery
