Poet Drank Too Many Words

Want and need equals good and see...

From out of bounds to railroad sound


A poet’s life bends to under pass and pretty lass


Words on words ideas never end


 


Want and need crisis and greed lost in burning weeds


All is in the starting seed born of Adam


Right or wrong walk along covering body with mindful song


Pursuit of sweet tender fruit better left upon the vine


 


Perhaps a place in the winter race of summertime and grace


We live for what it was or in time what it has been


Glowing trivial pursuit of Golden Fleece and apple root upon a throne


Shell it be a pea green sea or once again a river deep to sleep


Just before you're requited to return to burn a slow and brutal life


 


Here we are again at the very end of another poem lost in going home


To view a page that once blank now cover in grace and smudges erased


A wanted word or two covering bare parts of soul and body viewed
