Yesterday morning I took a walk some time after the sun came up, not too late for the frost to have melted but early enough for the world to be bejeweled. I was amazed by the sparkle of the world, the sun's rays catching on the most unexpected subjects, like this blackberry plant.
Dear daughter of Earth,
I am not naked, rose-lipped, chapped and chaste in a poetic caste and silhouetted erotically before sunset and starlight like the Thinker gazing across foreseeable perpetuity.
Dramatically striking a pose in the mirror,
This is me
today.
Where will I be this time tomorrow,
And where will my feet have taken me?
There you go again:
Reciting beautiful words
That no one cares about.
My broken mouth waits impatiently;
