Really?
TWO POEMS ON THE THEME OF REALITY AND DISTRACTION
Poem #1
Saw a hubcap
took a shot
wrote a poem
pondered life
waxed hermetic
googled clicks
published poem
waited
three days
for the revelation
I own
the hubcap
not anymore
Poem #2
while
masticating
the mystical
composing
an esoteric
elucidation
an ode
to underlying
understanding
I missed
the mundane
obfuscated
the obvious
overlooked
the overt
the
sacred
shape
I shot
belonged
below
my bumper
now
it's
gone
forever
providence
providing
the possiblity
to peruse
a cemetery
of sacred shapes
for a satisfying
shooting spree
