this season's prophecy: I will be stuck in a traffic-jam in April the summer's first sweat will take away my morning freshness, hours later I will enter the lecture hall with bloodshot eyes, sunburns, my shirt soaked near the armpits, and classmates I don't even know will ask me 'how are you feeling today?'
You either worship something higher than yourself or end up worshiping yourself
I ran out of poetry the other day, my inkwell coughing up dry clots of old blue, crumpled up pages piling up in front of me - mute foothills of blankness
I searched for words under the desk, took a walk outside hoping for imagery, my stroll a succession of rapid steps, my legs quick, cutting the streets like a pair of scissors
there weren't any metaphors and similies at the grocery store, I came back screaming epithets in free verse, hurling stanzas at the wall like cuss words
You either worship something higher than yourself or end up worshiping yourself
