In a Single Draft - Dec. 7, 2022

someday I want to

write a complete poem

without changes or edits

additions or deletions


inspiration only

heart holding the pen

words forming on the page

as the ink touches it


written from the choiceless place

delivered like a sunrise

discovered like a stream

on a mountain hike


accepted like

an unwrapped gift


admired for the shape

of its innocence
