Coffee? by George Hoerner"Coffee?" "Yes"
and on
to search for the
infinitesimal instant
when two minds
meet to find
(not a
picked apart
word filled
static game
fearful of
nothingness,
but)
an intensity of
life where
thoughts of words
might fit
if one were wont
to put them there
but when
in the eternity
of touching souls
words lose
their letters
only to find
their meaning
in the real
participation
of two crying out
in the wonder
of having found
each other
even if only
for this moment

Good one. Besides just stirring the coffee, seems like something else is stirring in the air. Excitemnet, maybe a little bit of love. :) |
