Simple
Poem 10 from my chapbook "As Glamorous as a Kidney"
Trevor Somethings electric sound comes from
Out the speakers.
I swig a new beer that tastes like
Peanut-butter and I enjoy it.
I took my time thinking about a poem
During work hours and it came out on break.
It shaped itself as always but this time
More naturally. For that I’m proud.
There was a new moon last night and it
Shined ever so bright through the dawn.
It can only be hoped that such a sight is
A sign of good things to come.
I’ve come to terms with what has been lost
And make peace. Not first without weeping
But that is a natural platform before
Stepping on to the next.
I’m moving on.
..
For now there is nothing else to say or
Think about…
Well…
There is always plenty to think but now
Nothing more to speak of.
