A poem

By Full blame



It is only a piece of art
It is only a piece of scrawl
It could never be you
It could never be the ocean
lapsing proximate
It is not the sun on your face
not a year in whirling flight
It is not the bookend of tragedy
nor victory, the last breath
It is not the body pulling you to earth
It is not the breath that measures expanse
It is not a chair in plain view of you
it is not the sweet flowers you would want
