If you fit
human history
into a poem
you find that
anything that has
happened has happened
because of
love
and anything
that didn’t was
because of
love
too,
which leaves you
wondering who
made you write
the poem in the
first place.
*
3 am creeps
finding me lonely
in bed listening
to the refrigerator
moan for someone
to open it
and give it
some forgotten heat.
*
I scrub the shower
clean and become
dirty in return
which makes me laugh,
because I take a shower
and have to clean again.
So visceral, love ! Fantastic write !
Gives one so much to think about. This is poetry with a message ! That first verse, is absolutely KILLER ! 👍
Hopefully I won’t be charged with murder, though. Kidding aside, thanks Dark Musings!
Can’t blame even if they did 🙈 because, this is IT !
couldn’t agree more! This was great. First paragraph gave me chills.
*stanza.
I was thinking the stanza about the freezer would result in more chills. Guess not.
