New Poem
... sort of.
I just got some not-so-great news from a friend. So this is just me riffing.

Valentine (Belated)
My love for you is an act of faith, like a shadow slipping around a shadow,
like a confection, like eating my heart out, like a comma, like a gemstone,
like a slip knot, like vocabulary, like wild patience, like rock salt, like cast iron, like silkworms, like a big city with narrow streets, like humidity, like onomatopoeia, like departures, like arrivals, like onions, like what’s not but what is, like brevity, like echo, like travel, like from this day forward, like sickness, like health, like death, like parting, like amen.
