  • This is a poem

    This is not
    a knotty poem

    not a problem
    to be solved

    not some sort
    of joke jest

    or just a blog
    post looking

    for a pic
    a prom corsage.

    What it is
    can’t be said

    without it
    disappearing

    like an old
    phone book entry

    EAstgate 3128
    for example

    back in the day
    before answering

    machines when
    comments off

    meant leaving
    the phone off

    the hook spoiling
    the party line.

    This is a poem
    you have a message.
