i wanted to put
2 words together
that had never
been put
together before.
i asked if you thought
it was possible
to find a new combination
& you said
maybe you have to invent a new language.
so i wait for you
outside of words
listening as your breath
pushes up against the air
& echoes
back
to me.
Funny, I want to comment on these poems like they are argued points in a blog post. Perhaps thats a good thing, though I hadn’t thought of it as a response to a poem before. Poetry as conversation rather than statement. Good to see you blogging.
