Innocence Falls Open
I.
“Lets inhale
Nonsense\"
I said
and she said
\"No.\"
So I said \"lets
play a game\"
and she said,
\"what kind of game?”
“Lets make angels
in sand dunes
where innocence
falls
open
like the lips
of
your
silence”
I said.
“Lets dive
in
a watery
Embrace
where
my golden
halo
cracks
A black
hole
in
to you”.
“Lets play
with the gods
high
above;
and come
down
from up there
and live down
here it’s a lot warmer in
Florida”.
II.
And she said,
“I’m digging you
like a grave
but I have a
bone
to pick with you.
I’m tired
of your game
and I rather rest
here
in this
bed I made.
You see? I can
accommodate
you.
I’m glad
I have your ear
Now.
You’re always
sticking
words in mine
like pencils in your
ear when you
are
writer-
blocked.
So while you are within
In my white
soft
padded
walls
you should always
have a pen in your hand
to write what I say down.
It’s inspiring,
Important,
you always
seem to forget.
I know you are aspiring
to be a poet
but if you are going to write
‘good poetry’,
you need a catchy title,
a strong voice,
some creative line
breaks,
some spontaneity,
(I played your game, haven’t I?)
and lastly
you should get your facts straight;
It’s hot here
but if you look around
this isn’t Florida”.
