the blank stare
the blank silent stare
when you're not at all there
makes me wonder where
you are
and how far
you are
away from me
and what it is you see
and where it is you rather be
and is someone with you
and what it is you do
and how long
will you be gone
from within you eyes
if your love dies
and you never
come back forever
will you remember me
on your journey
to where
you go when you stare
and i no longer there
so far from your care

beside the fire
beside the fire
sitting by her
beautiful to admire
her love to desire
and expire
with the dying fire

the best
the best
and most beautiful
i had to let go of
it was true
of all that i love
i possess
nothing only
but in memory
of no one and nothing
loving me

inside
inside the nicely so warm
i sit and watch
the so icy snow storm
outside these so old windows
the so cold wind blows
and so bold it snows
into the night fall
the snow white fall
alight on all
and so bright on all

i seem to suffer
i seem to suffer so severely
from a pronounced poverty
that does not permit me
to be in any quantity
proportion or degree
capable of composing poetry
my words are an assembly
of worthless drossy debris
only worthy to be
one day most forcibly
flung into a waste facility
