Frank Guglietta Poet Free verse

Sitting

I have no cash
for days.
I have 40 quarters,

plenty of room for 
groceries in my
kitchen. 

rent is paid,

I have a roof
and a toilet to
sit. 


I am working nights,
at by no means 
an ardous job. 

nights mean aloofness,
this he likes. 

I am reading and 
writing and feeling
and questioning,

as the night
blossoms into
day.

I feel alive.

Alive and strong,
I am bold

I am an animal,

---

I am grasping that we 
are always here,

and never there.

open the realm 
to enjoy this.
