The haiku, stanza, line, rhyme
poem she writes the poem
about death sex love depression suicide
about work highways byways and freeways
about elevators stairs and cool coffeehouse revelations
the book, paper, typeset words
the trees stars sky and moon
life, death sex and hate
hate sex life and birth
fucking love and love making
poem ,story ,and line after line
of white clouds and long winding dirt roads
childhood trauma love affairs gone wrong
and the shadow on the bedroom wall
I write he wrote she writes
rocks, birds, ideas, camp fires and bums under the bridge
cold mornings, light reflecting off the lake and the cruelty of the modern world
genocide misogyny and war
dances paintings and archaeology
architecture, homelessness , starvation
Hey, he’s a writer
