Poem: In the Angst of the 'What Could Be'

 

In the Angst of the 'What Could Be'

 

a puzzle hooks my pupils,

a sudoku of words,

grammar of guile.


fingers frenzy 

till fuzzy letters swarm a keyboard,

insubstantial

next to a Juliet or a Hamlet

but who isn't next to such skill

at showing how great and yet cruel

language can be?

 

click click click

go my fingernails

on the stupid little chits,

wasting countless

seconds on meaningless procreation.

 

what comes of it,

in the write way?

no one eulogizes

so many failures

to thrive.
