The Only Security
as long as I take care
of my teeth I'll never
be one of those friend
less home
less job
less penni
less hopelessly
drunken
broken
down tooth
less old
poets
Promise
What happened to all that
promise? a long-lost friend
blurted, in light of my current
circumstances. I thought; said
I came to see it as a threat,
and broke it like an arrow
in a treaty with myself.
