poetry on the wall.

…free verse.

words hurt,

*

so they should heal surely.

*

enough with guessing what “actions” mean.

*

strip the painting from the wall.

let’s go on a journey.

*

tell

me

something

carefully

&

concisely

written

for

a

change.

*

a poem I can stare at for hours, end straight.

*

take my wretched heart,

wrap it with a wreath instead.

*

if you speak to me,

do it gently, with ease.

*

if you write to me,

make it something I can keep.
