The Poem Cannot Be Written
THE POEM CANNOT BE WRITTEN
The Poem cannot be written-
We will never read.
Why we must die,
Perhaps Forever- not be.

And Suddenly End
THERE IS NO POEM NOW
There is no poem now
And there may never be a poem again.
Life can be so cruel
And suddenly end.

I Too
I TOO
I too have seen the Beauty of the World
I too have seen the morning light
I too have been alive-
Haven’t I?

The Real Poems I Recite
I RECITE A REAL POEM
I recite a real Poem,
The Poems I write are something else-
My Deepest Soul
My most Ironic Self.

All The Poems / Will Not Save
All the poems
Will not save
A single limb lost
In a terror-incident
Yesterday
In a bus
I might have been on.

The Soul Breaks
THE SOUL BREAKS
The soul breaks.
Time breaks.
Everything we are breaks.
Nothing is always as it should be forever.
God.

We Do Not Know Where We Are
WE DO NOT KNOW WHERE WE ARE
We do not know where we are-
We do not know why we are-
We just know we are-
For now.

There Is No Poem For Death
THERE IS NO POEM FOR DEATH
There is no poem for Death-
Death has no poem-
Death is the end of life,
Darkness unknown.

I Dreamed I Was a Poem
I dreamed I was a poem
And the universe read and reread me-
Until waking up I understood
I would never be written again.

I Am Only Where I Am
I am where I only am
Writing poems I cannot save-
One day perhaps
I'll be born again
And all my Poetry
Songs of Praise-
