Knee pain. Any suggestions?
Another "poem." As usual, thoughts welcome. I know you think.
Lord, it’s so hard to see
when my eyes are on me. -Keith Green
Morning, still mourning; dark dust cloaking
the eyes of the day I don’t own;
I say, Mirage? And you, Trail still calling—
not long, just up. Whoever you are,
please be patient with me.
Bracelet chain, necklace chain, anklet chain
weighing, guarding me like I’m just a patch inside
a fancy chain-linked fence. Sisters, daughters? —you say—
Say, who touched me? With a word I could answer
still without gazing up. Dripping jewels,
heavy black lashes. Look, that’s me,
I don’t know where I am; didn’t know
who you were. Breaking up, breaking free:
I try looking up, like you say. Just
to know where to go,
and where to see.
Now I see, and see, and see, and see.
