and get your emotions involved
and start forgetting that you
can’t be serious about it
I mean how can a life depend
upon a sonnet or an ode except
if we were being honest about it
yes maybe in a poem it could
still want for the words to circulate
around you pelting you
in their rain-like way
or it could purr at your feet
or stare at you oracular and grim
and leap upon you like your death
