My Process

My process is like dots. 
Not stars, just nothing dots. 
Rearranging. 
Tangled netting and dragonfly parts. 
Whatever I can grab and throw in the shopping cart. 
That sinks through the tile. 
I thought things were solid for once. 
Then the holes got torn up. 
And the dragonfly eyes too. 
Disintegrated. 
In such a poem which is made of sentences and more. 
My process is like dots. 
Spiky, horned dots. 
Maybe a few blobs and globs enticing. 
The end of a poem isn’t scary. 
Or strange. 
It's thirsty, but the end is that drink. 
My process. 
Like a pen that doesn’t worry about anything. 
Nothing dots and dragonfly parts. 
Wheeling me away.
Like they did five years ago.
