frost




finds joy in music and

                in silence



sits in the same blue room his

marriage fell apart in

but no longer writes about it



those days are dead and gone,

like kahlo and pollock,

like ernst, and the

sky here bleeds beyond its borders



the woman he loves sends him

letters from 3000 miles away



he goes to bed depressed,

wakes up frightened,

stumbles out into the painful

light of too many ordinary hells



wonders when time

became the enemy



why his scars are only

beautiful when no one else

can see them
