Void

Non sense fills void

better than anything else

 

and foreshadows

the outcome

 

No sense wrestling

these sounds down

 

to pale patois

of pretty pushes

 

when the page

is a sieve catching

 

eyes and what falls

from them

 

eyes emptied

heart emptied

 

shaken out like a trash can

On Tuesday

 

I read

Oak leaves

 

Under my porch light

they tell me no one has left

 

recently

 

I tell them

no one is here

 

anymore

to leave
