Closer Valentine

Is poetry closer to life
than neurology or aquaculture
bullfighting or whatever
is this a pome
you’re writing to him
(ask this with mocking tone)
so many theories
it’s clear no one
really knows what
he’s capable of yet
except to me
like parking a few
words on the side
of the table a
slow sign or
place to stop
and touch.
