Poems and people


You hear
yourselves in them,
self after self
...
when I leave, I leave
alone, as I came.

—Denise Levertov, "Poet and Person", Gift of Tongues

Poems and people
started January th, 2021

Each morning I arrive
into this world anew
with a sigh and a memory
of day before day
self before self
that has tried to take up
permanent residence in this body
each one feeling right
until one morning it isn't.

This is my record of
poems and people
page after page after page.

At the end of the day
each one perches
on the edge of the night
to fly away alone into the dark.

I sleep and wait
to see who will arrive
with the morning.

It's confusing enough for me. I'm sorry for the others who know me well enough to get caught in it.

Night is a time to rest
Night is a time to shelter
Night is a time to snuggle up to some one
Night is time to feel safe protected
Till the sun comes up and warms your face
A new day
what is there to do
Where to go
What to see
What to make of it is your to do
Till the sun goes down
The day is over
Time to rest again

Makes one wonder.. which is worse? An endless night or day? Either way the indeterminable horizon never seems in sight if one keeps their eyes closed.

My name is MrWrong and I approved this comment

This is probably why I read so much. Or one of the reasons. It distracts me from those far off things that can be overwhelming. Far off things, close things, all of the above. Thank you for commenting. Hope you're doing as ok as possible. Hugs.
