Are You Living Now

Is there always one verse

  you still have yet to write

 

 And if not—what’s the point

  of it all

 

Are you the repository of

  all you have felt

 

Or the dealer and merchant

  of lies

 

Are your thoughts tattooed onto

  your immortal soul

 

With your feelings exposed

  or held back

 

Are the words disconnected

  from the ink in your veins

 

Do you live within

  all that you’ve said

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2016)
