The Page

staring at the page again 
i bled out all i have 

like there is nothing to imagine 
reached to the farthest archive 

no lines come to mind 
just last week i was writing them blind 

of love, family ,death, fantasy and the 
haiku kind 

if i think about looking back 
i could be there in a heart attack
 
and the page does not have to be blank 
i write what i know and what i don’t
 
can have rhythm and flow 
a meaning or a deep reason 

can have fact or a little fiction 
from something to nothing
 
as i stare at the page ,
i see a poem
