Skip to main contentFind and share the perfect poems. If the pain doesn’t come back,  what will I write about? Will the poems  have tendon and teeth? I didn’t get  right the sonnet of all its colors. I did not find the exact dagger of phrase  about the long loss of my life. Hope is all I do and am. I don’t think I’m poet enough  to make you taste this mango;  or see that sutured sunset unless  from a hospital bed. I was good for carving. There will be kisses, music, street names.
