Do you know how easy it is to be uninspired by your inspiration?
To go back to the roots you once adored and now feel nothing for?
So easy to miss something that was never there
Screaming and thrashing in the open air
Hoping to scratch that invisible line
To finally cross into divine understanding
Of the spiraling world inside the mind

This Is Just To Say

Inspired by William Carlos Williams

I plucked
from you
the kiwi
that you held
against your mouth

You told me
that you are allergic
but you never
mind the burn

Forgive me
I don't want
to see you hurt
