If my house was not skin
then it would have to be paper,
with ancient lunar calendars
written on the sides of my neck.
like a magi i would wander
moving in my secret phases
until many days passed
with a head of white
return home full and whole.
if my house was not bone
then it would have to be glass,
stained and frail
i would break in pieces
to form my mosaic the
drunken poet.
with blackened shades
of green and brown,
i would hang ornately
in some old window of a
luthern church in the minnesotas.
my darkened eyes being
brightened by the passing light
and i would be happy again.
if my house was not blood
then it would have to be ink
and i would be in a poem
on this piece of paper
some how whole
happy and content.....

That was a very unique style, and i loved it. Not the kind of poem you see every day. |
