      Wings

      Sep 1, 2023

      “BUT WHAT MUST I give you in return?” I ask, suspicious. “Nothing,” she replies. “Well. Next to nothing.” She has offered me wings, beautiful, silvery wings. And I am not mad, so I intend to accept. But I’m also not a fool. I touch a feather. Delicat

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Two Poems

      Nov 1, 2019
