Frame of Words
'I love you,' he said.
'No, you don't.'
'In my poems. You can find my love for you.’
'Love of words.
You live in a box
Rearranging alphabet
Into order
That only you control.'
Like a jazz musician
Finding different improvised
Melodies
Running in parallel lines
With a wayward bounce
The listener pretends
To understand
So the artist draws lines
Creating as if a God.
Man and Woman,
Declaring their love
For each other.
I'm trapped in a frame of words.
And from my brain grows
Fruit called apple.
