MAYBE
A life that may be,
Floating around in the ether-
In the space between the spoons
And forks
Near the dining room table
Unsanitary utensils that create
Within emotions
Vapor drifting next to me
A ghost that walks just so
Behind me
Religious revivals
Reviving in us the possibilities
Our ancestors wandered
And God shows himself more readily
Than you
On the tip of your tongue
On the tips of your fingers
Your nails carve into my heart
"Maybe"
