A Reminder
I stumble along.
It's a muddy day.
In the mud are shards of grief,
sharp and gray at once,
set points up for me
to find with my bare skinned feet
so's I remember
what the hell happened
when I looked the other way.

I liked this one the first time I read it, even more now...
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I have published I am pretty sure. Maybe I wrote something like it.
ReplyDeleteYou put this in the comment section of one of my early poems...
ReplyDeleteOr something similar... About feet and shards
ReplyDeleteI won't argue about that but it happened as dated on the poem, back on June 22, 2011. Were you online and active in your blog at that time? To my knowledge I have never for any reason posted anywhere else from my archive once the poem has been written until I post on my blog. For that matter, I don't post again from my blog when a poem has been published. I only post a poem when it is written or from the order in turn from the archive. So the date beneath is meaningful for more than just when I finished the poem the first time. This would be less true in book publishing.
