Abstract Extreme
by Matthew ZangenShe thinks 'love' and 'hate' are words
that speak
for themselves
to the dimly reading eyes of strangers.
She acts,
she speaks, often,
like they are the synonymous couple,
they are
with her
other half, so
she won't tell anyone but her notebook--
a good listener:
bound and pressed
and choked with ink. 07/31/2006 Posted on 07/31/2006

| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 11/13/06 at 04:19 AM Matthew, CONGRATULATIONS on POTD! I like the theme of the poem, but more the form, since it looks like the longer lines could almoste be a poem in themselves.
