![]() CambienA Poem by Debbie
Cambien I am sleeping Tendering the hours, clasping night as if I were an infant needing its sustenance I have no patience for the web of words you weave They are words Breathe here, vowels drifting into some semblance of meaning Pick a language, find a definition I care less for these borders you seek out I am that interloper That transgressor who erases the three part document requiring the notary witness I will be only myself And that changes I do admit I will not give you an easy passage Your ticket has not been paid here Y tambien There is no change made here Bring what you can Be who you will And for now, yes I shall accept that Loose My heart stops its Beating Hardly exchanging Movement Has its own expense I am charged with such extravagance Having yet hardly moved…. Do you feel the way the wind carves its ownership Regardless of season I belong Mind and body Somewhere else The Corazon is pierced And made a cut out doll to stick Needles into © 2008 Debbie |
