poetry for the loner 4/17/15 9:30 am

it seems that words came stronger and with little searching

sitting in front of that kitchen window,

the house next door, peering back at me.

how often can i think about eggs and the morning thickness?

everyday.

do i miss it?

that small table i built, patchy and wild

i had to hold it down with my greasy elbows

with the sun trying to burn holes in my eyes.
