Time

it’s time to admit you have no poems left 
They all fled before light 
Steaming out of your pores 
cloaked in Humiliation 

visions ashamed of the visionary 

I have a photo of your younger body
bare feet
trading dreams for soup
Aimless with purpose 

I broke my right foot 
You heard me weep in the trees
As I took off my old leg
And poured cement in its place  

I find shoes. I find a map
I find a box and build me a family 
Build a dog, build a boat 
build me a getaway car

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed."
