    somewhere between somewhere and somewhere


    El Paso to Tucson

    one hand holding the wheel

    the other the letter

    that ended our deal

    Tucson to L.A.

    Tearing into pieces

    a past

    that was never real

    the wind takes the words out of the window

    I watch them briefly

    from the side mirror

    leaving them

    to die

    somewhere in the Arizona desert

    I look at your picture

    one last time

    and then

    like falling leaves it twist behind me

    our words into the desert wind

    perhaps someone will find a tattered piece

    of a small puzzle

    and briefly wonder about someone else’s dreams

    I just drive

    to somewhere I’ve never been

    somewhere that I won’t know

    until I get there

    somewhere between somewhere and somewhere

    somewhere between

    Fort Worth and forever

    Pod'na, lot in yo're poetry folks can sense and feel..that's what makes it real.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
