this poetry is an elusive trickster
when i want it to be there
it disappears
it does not respond
to command
but instead
seems to live it’s own life
freely unconcerned
with what i want
any sign of wanting
on my part
and it’s off
hiding in the ether
enjoying the unformed realm
so what can i do?
i have no plan
not building a career
or a platform
not trying to be anything
or get anywhere
no
i simply have to allow the waves
to rise and fall
guided as they are
by some unseen hand
some mysterious intelligence
the same intelligence that runs the whole show.
