more
more than this
you must give me more
i am not armed for aimless love
for the faded sundays under lazy fans
the lukewarm spreading of a family cat
the dispassionate mumbling between a blanket and duvet and the needless needing by tea left alone in the microwave
i am equipped with years of me
of my love for love through love
of the kind of desire not found in plastic spoons
in the sweetened pick me up of stuck honey
or the smell of dried feet hung
against your breath after the dying morning
here i am
a mess of everywhere inside of you
here i am
an order of everything outside of me
waiting for you to use the world well by ultimately using it less
whisper it hold it on my tongue whole
there is still stillness left to do
and be done by
even as you move away
into the more

You are writing some exceptional poetry. This is really great stuff. I know how important my own poetry is for me, and that same commitment for honesty, depth, and excellence comes through your work. Carry On!!!

Mind if I ask how you came across what I wrote? Just curious

K, I sent a comment by phone, but not sure it went thru, so repeating on the big screen…
I said:
Based on this poem alone, I may be in love with you. I am very interested in reading more & curious: might you be interested in bartering books? I can send mine … ??
I definitely want to read more, if I can find how to follow…sometimes in obscure places on the sites.
Thanks so much for putting your work out here where the world & I can get to it!
Best wishes, Carol B
