April 9, 2012A Poem by Molly CaraKeep your promises. Or better yet disassemble them. I have been arching to emulate Temporary things: The branches that frame the atmosphere The moments I have left here A first impression of the day from a dizzy look at dawn Like these you have been holy But you have not been holy since last you made amends With the months before your birth and the months Between your death and your next and your next... Since you let the Scripture burn and drew portraits in the ashes Of instances you’ll soon forget but wish you could preserve. © 2012 Molly Cara |
