On Poetry, Language

Words are as fleeting

As one-night stands

And Monday meetings.





POETRY:



-----

Pain

On

Ecstasy

Through

Revised

Yearnings.



Plagiarized

Offerings

Engraved

Temporarily..

Regarded

Yesterday's news.



Purposely

Ornamented

Enigmas

Tritely

Revered.

Yours forever.

-----



Read once, then

Discarded.

Eyes that beg for more

From thoughts

Not important enough

To warrant a stranger's second glance.



Tiny novelettes

Dance around

In three-ring sorrow binders

In denial 'til tomorrow finds them

Dust collectors

On fields of shelves...
