argument

The last time I spoke with you, it was like breathing underwater. My lungs were filling up, so that thin words kept swimming out of my mouth and I coughed up phrases that didn't make sense. Every speck of twisted logic you managed to shout suddenly fit, and I found myself wondering if you had been right all along. It was too bright. You were too loud. I didn't know what to say, and the fish were swimming all around me and brushing my shivery arms and my skirt was floating and freezing my bare legs. My hair was seaweed. My tongue was sa

3-5-2008with my mother's camera i take pictures of you. clutching to each other, lazy like children. bright and loud against the light - a smile and a nod -
one, three, four and i'm counting your two sets of teeth, bare and white. you're so eager when you smile - and today, so very real -
so quick to say, "oh, god, can we please try this again?" 3-5-2008

tomorrowI stretch my hands out to tomorrow on Thursday nights, and rub last week's worries out of my eyes. it's half easier to pretend that the fringe ends of yesterday aren't still clawing off my skin, but tomorrow is promising a prettier tattoo to cover up the mistake on my right shoulder, and I am placing all my trust in her wispy fingers. I've been told to look through the hospital window at tomorrow, my newborn child, but the glass is fogged and I can't tell whether it's a greenhouse or a lover's car; either way, tomorrow will grow up without me, now, and I' tomorrow

songs from the sea - I.fish song sounds between the crash plastic fire a sweet wild crowd.
mostly you are lost inside this sea of rolling arms and washing words. you look for her ankles like shells in rough shoeshined sand. your eyes are restless seagulls.
remember her against color girl like water clean & calm & alone an always ache you almost want to call when it is late. songs from the sea - I.

kitestringi used to build last-chance bridges that would crumble with the touch of a wish hanging onto your little sister's fallen eyelash like a shivering mountain climber.
and as peace shook itself down around my shoulders i wondered if you've ever wondered why when, at night, when you stare out at the trees that sway, serene and alone - why you, with all your charm and awkward grace lie by yourself lit up by moonlight hands behind your head in the shape of a diamond with the knowledge that if the rest of you does not interfere too much, you might become a kite and f kitestring

ForgivenessI
When the little girl woke up, she found cookies in her shoes.
It was December 6, St. Nicholas Day, her parents told her.  That’s the day when Santa comes and takes your Christmas list and leaves you cookies if you were good, a switch if you were bad.  Santa left her cookies!  The little girl squealed in delight, in excitement.
Do you want to try one, her mother asked.  The little girl put one in her mouth.  She chewed.  She swallowed.  She smiled.  It was the best thing she had ever eaten in her life. Forgiveness

leaving you behindregret is fertile ground for stories. leaving you behind, in the wake of a faster life that is not mine. your voice in my head
has the song of six strings, trying desperately.
the streetlights flood me, and i am left alone with what i have done. leaving you behind

Wow! You really are a brilliant poet, aren't you?

Why don't you join the poetry contest from [link] ?

It's free and every nitwit such as myself who enters gets a small gift

but someone like you might win one of their $10 000 or $100 000 prizes.
