Since it's Halloween, how about a poem about fear?
Harmless Thing
Blonde beautiful&
dumb
so young and
excited
about a peanut,
like the fresh green
part of a maple key, taking
root
in her.
Tiny jellyfish-like embryo
translucent, showing
skinny fragile veins
full of her blood,
living in her inside.
A fingerprint sized
harmless
thing.
I'm
the one who
chokes
with fear, as if
a chord was wrapped around my neck.
