Blog EntryFor Sondi (Hoisted by my own Petard)Nov 4, '06 12:29 AM
for everyone

For Sondi  Ã¢Â€Â“ young poet extraordinaire


 


your words cut incisively


like a knife


cleanly, precisely


dismissing the dross


rejecting the irrelevant


inconsistent


with my assumptions


 


astonished


arrogantly


i inquire as to your age


positive


that such prose cannot flow from the young


hoisted by my own petard


graciously


you respond


 


like a sinner clutching at redemption


seeking more


of the wisdom that flows from your mind


and pen


greedily


I continue to feast on your words


imbibing them like champagne


until I reel in drunken wonder


mouth agape


dazed


and stumble


onto your next poem


where the wonder begins


anew
