A SAMPLE POEM
life dreaming
i am nothing but
bits of paper,
grains
of sand pressed
hot
against
hard flesh,
campfires
burning bright
against
the still night.
i am
man-flesh
human life
walking &
dreaming,
twitching under the
noonday sun.
sometimes
i am hunger, i
am rain and all
things natural
and
i love and hate
with equal
authority,
madness beneath
the
cloud-pieces.
1995-2004 Scott C. Holstad
This poem originally appeared in The Pittsburgh Quarterly.
