I’ve got some poems for ya.

Here’s a poem that’s currently a work-in-progress in my poetry class.

Towel Drying

As I step out of the shower,
mist collecting in curling columns,
I pick up my towel; its seams
puckering to kiss the cascades of water,
as if in the throes of thirst, or-

a reaction of repulsion from sour taste –

and I wonder if the towel
now thrown in the corner
is curled up in satisfaction-

or if it is doubled over
in an aching state of futility,
in search of and never finding
a means to stay dry.

***
Give it a look, give me suggestions. Tell me if you like it! Another one to come soon.




And I'm not the biggest scumbag you'll ever meet
and yeah man all my bridges are hangin from a string:
thin like a fishing line, like the type of string
that keeps this whole damn city together.

-Gospel, As Far As You Can Throw Me
