howlA Poem by John Destalothere is a shade a separation that haunts me a shade that I won’t ever share with you I think the grass is greener in me I think I am the other side I taste all colors at once as if they are actually one and then rip them apart with my cerebral teeth letting them roll around in my mind one at a time they try to force themselves together into shapes creating the aching inside of me until they gush from my pores onto a blank canvas I see a real person separate falling into pieces I try to put him back together two eyes on one side what does he see when he looks at me does he see me as his master or does he see me as his obedient dog? © 2011 John Destalo |
