Poem 2: Pour
My mouth whispers a stream of consciousness into a paper bag
and I take two breaths:
One shallow
One deep
and the prolonged exhale creates a twister
whose force spins the thoughts at a rate
my hands cannot capture.
The bag bursts from the unrelenting
gusts
Those quiet thoughts
amplify as they
shoot into the atmosphere
like cannon fire
and all I can do is watch the
unintentional fireworks
put on a good show
for an audience unaware
of the spectacle
that pours down
like a sudden summer rain
upon their unsuspecting heads
