America, Tony Hoagland
Then one of the students with blue hair and a tongue stud
Says that America is for him a maximum-security prison
Whose walls are made of RadioShacks and Burger Kings, and MTV episodes
Where you can’t tell the show from the commercials,
And as I consider how to express how full of shit I think he is,
He says that even when he’s driving to the mall in his Isuzu
Trooper with a gang...

Adam and Eve, Tony Hoagland
I wanted to punch her right in the mouth and that’s the truth.
After all, we had gotten from the station of the flickering glances
to the station of the hungry mouths,
from the shoreline of skirts and faded jeans
to the ocean of unencumbered skin,
from the perilous mountaintop of the apartment steps
to the sanctified valley of the bed—
the candle fluttering upon the dresser top,...

Vanity Flare, Wendy Videlock
poetry365:
Don’t get me wrong: I know that knowledge is power, that mystery’s water, that hunger makes a gargantuan lover, and yes, I’ve drunk of the river Lethe, from the breath of the Celts, from the echo of the bugling elk,
and yet,
alas, here I be, small and twee, all liquored up on song and love, hard as rails and light as air, expecting the heavens to throw...

there is a hunger often associated with pain that you feel when you look at someone you used to love and enjoyed loving and want to love again though you know you can’t that gnaws at you steadily as a mosquito some michigan summer churning his wings through your window screen because the real world made up of baby clothes to be washed food to be cooked...
All Girls Should Have a Poem, Richard Brautigan
poetry365:
For Valerie
All girls should have a poem written for them even if we have to turn this God-damn world upside down to do it.
New Mexico Marck 16, 1969
Poems of Air, Mark Strand
poetry365:
The poems of air are slowly dying; too light for the page, too faint, too far away, the ones we’ve called The Moon, The Stars, The Sun, sink into the sea or slid behind the cooling trees at the fields edge. The grace of light is everywhere.
Some summer day or winter night the poems will cease. No one will weep, no one will look at the sky. A heavy mist will fill the valleys, ...
All the things I have,
all I could be, I’d give up
to bring you to me.
