a new poem!

Paper Cuts


eye see a rainbow of construction paper

it can’t cause a poem

the subtlety is too subtle
the importance too small.
eye breathe a little slower
live a little shorter
die a little more

fleeting, fleeing ever faster
adult years outpace childhood
farther from it every
year, every
day, every
heartache

Wonder
is fading, escaping
fleas from a drowning pet

You are mourned
by just one, Truest Friend of mine.
