YOU GOTTA WANT IT
From the 2019 Collection "2222"
I’ll give you
what I got,
I can part with it all.
I have gifts—
A silk tongue,
a white Flag,
free time,
coupons.
My violence
has atrophied
but still
I’m in
a twist.
Clawing too weakly
at that clear
and present Love,
like fishing that
stupid stuffed animal
out of the
vending machine.
