i spilled wine on your shirt

by Angela Thomas

sometimes i think about my poetry. like maybe
someone else wrote the lines about their life
and would would that look like? it's truly
so mundane for me. fancy. i've been

using that word a lot. what's the other
one? crap. fond? have i been using the word
fond a lot when i talk about things? i do believe
so. words are like that. you fall into one and like

the way it drips and melts or falls off the roof
of your mouth, the curve of your tongue. a softer
kind of timbre rising from a place deep and true,
the still blue waters of an ocean's crest, your

voice with it's funny pronunciation and wasn't
it lovely for just the moment we met in the middle?
