8 nov 5

poetry

am i bold enough?

            i remember in feelings

                        and trust most events

            i sleep willingly

                        and assume unmonitored accountability

 

the sun slapped me across the face an hour ago

            and i pled for more sleep:

every one and thing must have a turned head at some point

            and not even on my knees i wanted that point

 

the integrity of the universe is great

            as far as i can tell

                        and the difference isn’t to me, but over my head

    one problem (of many) with my poetry is it’s too obscure, so for some i’ll include what it’s about: i try to leave all of the clues, but i don’t.

    there was this day that i wanted time to stop so that i could sleep longer, which got me thinking about my faith in whatever it is that enforces the laws of physics. that is what this one is about.
