Admin's Featured Poem Pick of the Week for August 7, 2006


"sugar tit"


sit up pay attention can you hear me i'm trying to say
we're created by everything that touches us
and so much of it
has nothing to do with tears or sentiment
or the traffic of dreams but shaped every passing moment
by some predetermined
need to define who we are
oh mama not yet don't leave hold on
and remember
how you taught me everything yourself kneeling
in the backyard
to help me hold it steady and point it
at the blur in the trees saying
that's it don't breathe take it easy just squeeze
