a poem
February 27, 2009
a poem
by tomorrow.
a poem in a
box
made of requirements
deadlines
rubrics
and word counts.
i prick my finger
write it in my
blood so that
she carries a
part of my soul.
poem flitters
screams
i force her into
the box.
no air holes
she suffocates
and the part of
me inside her
dies.
