my first poem that makes me proud

May 12th, 2002

Although I’ve written numerous poems before, I never truly thought any of them were good. But this morning I jumped out my bed because I was so inspired and the words were pouring out of my head. I couldn’t afford to lose it.

Fling

Beauty
on the other side
of the road.
It was you
shining through.
Air
full of twinkling stars,
blowing away
my fatigue
and dirt.
Embrace me
with your godlike
bosom.
Never before
had I been drunk
with flowers
on my cheek
tainted pink
and light
scented.
