Jeff Connelly Poet I do not know?

Side By Side

let's go for
a drive and
you tell me

shotgun and
climb inside
the driver's

passenger
side but i
ask where

else would you
be but next to
me if i'm driving

but by reading
my own poetry
i take myself

back before i
could even try
to tag my words

influenced by
this this is my
style affirming

that i have 
a grip on the
terra fauna

after all i've
only read 
Turtle

Island two
times so
I'm not

to be
followed
by followers

that i know
what they
want i won't

be capable
of telling
them to

do what i do
forgetting to
say load your

gun with shells
with pellets that
will tell you by

their spread
what is to be
read then

that's where
i've failed for
none of my

shotgun
words hit
their mark
