Poem : Writer Ingenue

A Writer Ingenue

is always youthful truth

because of daring

and from the

blue red thumping rose

the heart of coming home

ghosted and

reanimated

more than eternal times

since the beginning

since the very first

last time

***

I broke

starbursting tears

I was

thank you

for who i am

beginning again

as your partner

I can dance with you

forever

my god how beautiful

you are

like star rain flowers

carry me home

on your shoulder

perfectly myself

with you.
