Poems
Dec 2018
from her crooked smile
I think she is brilliant
I want to be one of her words
just one of her magic words
that casts a spell over all these people
I will start as a mere disturbance in her
a feeling that something important just happened
a desire that she cannot yet name
I will spend so much time in her cavernous mind
wandering through all her crevices
falling off the cliffs into deep water
god she is so deep
how am I able to breathe
there is so much going on in here
all this energy
explosions of thought
everything moves
so quickly
that nothing should
connect
but somehow it
all does
and when she finally
turns me into
form
real enough so
she can grasp me
begin to understand me
and she expels me
from her
as one short word
of one short poem
because I was inside her
people will think
I am brilliant
