Who was I?
Simon Balnaton Mar 2013
I once saw her; walking towards the bars, and stores, and streets that I do.
Truthfully? I was not really concerned about her.
Rather?
Her feet.
The “clip clop” she made on the sidewalk.
Those shoes
I asked nobody.
I mean…
If that was her decision...
Who was I?
Simon Balnaton Mar 2013
Just to clarify:
The search wasn't for the definition...
I had to make sure I used it in the sentence correctly.
I knew you would mention it.
At least, I thought you would.
I still don't think I used it correctly.
I love you anyway.

Waiting? Advice
Simon Balnaton Mar 2013
If waiting: sleep well today.
Night will not come to you tomorrow either.
But... when it does?
You will wish you slept yesterday.

The Line
Simon Balnaton Mar 2013
A heart pounding,
hands shaking,
line of poetry.
Who am I kidding?
Line after line after line.
i'll write just one more.

define: Rhetoric
Simon Balnaton Feb 2013
You know,
I had to look up "rhetoric" before I used it the other day...
I was going to confess.
I mean, I used it in the same sentence as "intellectual".

I am glad I didn't tell you.
