Bitterest Taste
May 3, 2009
is this piano broken?
are these stairs crumbling beneath feet?
are those petals falling at spring's peak?
and words can fathom
the bitterest taste
of residual grace.
and we'll spare ourselves of all of this.
as we deepen the consequence
for every detail we overlooked
and every distinct deafening twitch.
