IN
​Harry Hoogstraten

in
    the garden sun
                               you sit
    sewing the hole
                                in my pants
on your day off
                            you do this
                                         for me
                            you stop me
                            from falling
                                                  through
                                                  the rest
                                                  of the week

THE SEARCH
Adam Stone


The search
        engine reveals more
                                   truths about
                                   the seeker than the information
                                   they requested

There is a government
                  machine that is worried about you but
                                           has no one to talk to
                                                                            about it

    What Is This All About?

    This page is where the content from previous poetry blogs have been condensed. It's not on the menu, since most of these projects are over, or on hiatus, but the posts are still here to peruse.
