NO
I am not dark.
I write happy things,
most of the time.
I can not help it,
if I spilled my coffee,
the phone rang,
the alarm clock didn’t,
two people were in the line ahead,
I had only one bill in my wallet,
it was more than enough,
but less than I needed,
Who would have guessed?
That this was intended
to be the moment,
I was to write,
the perfect line,
and held back,
only to find that “he”
was near,
so close…
that I could no
longer think clearly,
much less at all,
in the cold of summer,
high-heat of winter,
I felt faint.
