for poetry and stone
your words in my cold and broken bones
revealing what i would have never known on my own
and all the stories have become my own
through an old time microphone
with you, i’ve never felt more at home

rusted buildings
concrete sky
children running
the city on motorbikes
5 pm and school’s out
yellow hats
rubble
the bus rumbles
red lanterns on the trees
firecrackers in the air
the ringtone of an American Idol

the words i write
Posted: October 13, 2013 Filed under: poetry | Tags: from a plane, written 10.12.13 Leave a commentin the words i write
i become a fraud lost in my flaws
and weakened through comparison
of the one i made up
between my hands and heroes
what i make can’t be
the same words i read in the books
or conversations of the city
still, i go on in prose and song
in the words i’ve known all along
