Tears of Rain
A breakup "nonet" love poem
All was foggy when I met you. To
fall in love, I fluttered to cloud
9, sipped on the wispy haze
of you - caught flame (within)
the skyline's plane. Then
you vaporized,
and I cried
tears of
rain.

The Lesions of Devotion
Every day I set myself down on the freshly cut lawn and strip myself bare. I take my guitar and finger the frets and pick at the strings, listening for dissonance. My life is dissonance. I twist the tuning pegs until each string sounds bright. Then I kneel, calves pointing behind me, kneecaps facing forward. All exposed to the breeze. I close my eyes and play the melody.
