...of unfinished monuments and odes that refuse to be birthed as words


they show a glimpse  
brimming dams of light    
ready to burst through  
   
and so you go ahead    
and reach for them  
wasting precious moments  
   
gravity  
sucks it all out  
before your toe    
has left the ground  
   
why is it that fate  
loves playing  
with innocence?  
   
she once said to me  
that those unfinished works  
are but  
true a r t  
   
i may never know  
but those yet to be born  
do call out  
restless and ill at ease  
   
sometimes  
i turn my back    
and sometimes  
i fail...
