Honorable Mention
Notes
Treezaa (T. E. Ballard)

I have tried
to crawl inside an envelope.
It's tricky at first to bend body
side to side, leave the sticky edge
on back but I want to eat
your words. Soft curly O's
and the L's which loop
around, fall flat on a page
like some disgruntle acrobat
left out of the next trick.

I am magician.
Letter in the drawer,
behind a pillow, bed
or by the window so wind
betrays my dreams
and I find you in that place
between sleep, death.

You are here
but then your not
and I am left with waste
of trees, scratches of a pen.
I am left with the conclusion
that it's impossible to love
everything you read.
