dressed to the nines of possibility

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

dressed to the nines of possibility

 

 

 

spontaneously deliberate

i move in love's direction

carefully carefree,

loosening my heart, like a tight collar and tie

to breathe in the sense of it all

 

and then step in short strides

trying not to wrinkle my 

 

 

suit.
