poetry

Does an emptiness
attract more space

or manufacture it
one or the other

such a nice day
after all, cold, clear

elevator affability
and sunlight

drawing in
everything

except those
cherished words

not anymore
through unthinking

neglect or
something more

willful
one or the other

and would it even
matter

it may snow
tomorrow

a line is drawn
never benign

no, this much
but not a breath more

a love gone
asymptotic

    unh (that’s supposed to be sound of involuntarily letting go of all your air, not in a violent way like from a punch, but in that my-soul-just-got-crushed kind of way)
