Utterance
The words slip
from my lips
as if they actually mean
something
of import;
yet
everyone daily speaks
and each dreams
the world we live,
so why do I
feel so privileged?
Parenthood
So much anger and resentment,
so much attention to perceived slights,
so much importance attached to extremes
of adolescent self-absorption,
so much of what we do is determined
by an other, as if we can maintain a whole
outside of ourselves: the universe expands
into a space without prior existence.
Say It Three Times And It Is So
and so I repeat myself
and myself I repeat so
I repeat so and myself
myself so and I repeat
and I so repeat myself
myself I repeat and so
so I myself and repeat
repeat and myself so I
myself and I so repeat
