betrayed by poetry by Jared FladelandI am always accidentally too honest when I write
poetry.
I let words fly
and splinter and splatter onto the page,
and I think
it doesn't mean all that much.
Then years go by and I forget all my poems
until I stumble upon them,
and I realize just how true
they were,
no matter how false I tried to make them.
