Your Words

by Anita Mac

I was sinkingsinkingsinking
into your words tonight,
(And my bed.)
You wrote and write,
I read and read;
starving eyes tripping
over comfort food
(and back again)
until some part of me feels whole.

In this dimension, you display the facility of subtle coercion, to have the poetic universal touch the core of the personal...

i don't know why it took me so long to read this, but either way, i love it.

Yes. I know that feeling. And I love that, even though this place isn't what it once was, there is still plenty of nourishment to be found.
