Get Him Off Your Mind


Get Him Off Your Mind

marvelous at dawn
miserable at sunset
slow-burning love
shaky with hunger
pieces of my flesh
so often forgotten
                get him
                                off
                your mind
they say
they tell me
    to leave him behind

Ok, I lied. One poem today. Friday frazzle and double-earaches but still managed a teeny one.

Happy weekend. Oh, and the sun came out!

In propinquity,
Nic

  1. The first two lines say it all for me. Gorgeous in its simplicity. Nice end result for a frazzled, ear-achey poet!
