Poetry
Cereal and yogurt, milk and a spoon
By andybyers
10 August 2007
Abridged.

Alone, the silence fragrant with
the death of all snows
She took my hand and led me to new knowledge
Believed in me
Though she barely knew my name
and in vast betrayal I have
forgotten hers

Rigid hot earth
that became highway
Carry me back
for just a little while
Cradle me
in creepers
Clothe me
in mud

Make me forget
    that I have known
        cell phones
        shuttles
        sex
        and death
        and taxes
all.
