you know when you feel a little stuck?
in life or otherwise
waiting, wondering if the change
you promised was bidding
a bit out of your price range
when the rain feels like a relief
because you can say you hurt
and people get it
and you don’t want to
make a performance
out of your pain
but sometimes
that’s all you’ve got
and you have to create something
is it too honest?
if it hits you
when the energy
to create metaphor
is too much
so you just say it?
but then your heart is there
for anyone to pick up
and it’s so bruised already
but like in a really boring way
so you feel like taking up space
is kind of awkward?
this is the kind of
creative frustration
that is so old
we should have a formula to change it
i try to unwind myself from the work
make it less me
but then what’s the point?
i want to tell you about it like a painter
and maybe someday i will
but for now i will tell you about it
like this.
