words pop into my head:
"Cambodia",
why on earth would I take
a ship through the pillars of Hercules?
I'm not an oarsman or an oracle
nor am I in favour of mutiny
words don't hop off the page with
regrets, pink-eyed and ready to fuck
at the drop of a hat
you just give a poem your best shot, write the
words down before life skins you alive
and you are carried away, still mouthing words that
would have been poems.

Hello Anna,
I like this (and all the thought you put into it!)
you just give a poem your best shot, write the
words down before life skins you alive
and you are carried away, still mouthing words that
would have been poems.
always, Cat
