Ethanol High - 3 Poems
[A]
Parallels
Euclid’s Axiom:
Parallel lines don’t
intersect
except at infinity.
False False again!
Soft kisses under fall
foliage
remembered today tell
Me, how we met impossibly once.
Two parallel lines again
stretching
into the blue infinities.
[B]
Unlangauged
I will become unlangauged
Like the birds
The insistent fluttering of
those wings
The high pitch of raucous
Bird love song
In sparse snow armored trees
(You walk under)
And fill up the wintry silences
Of my grief.
[C]
Black
Black: the color of soot
ascendant of lights
extinguished.
Black: the night I fight
with puny fires
raging tears.
Black: the color you liked to
wear; the antimony in
your unloving eyes
Black: the blankness of this memory
I hold to write about
Black
