'instead' by Lesley Lebkowicz
by Lesley Lebkowicz •
we write small poems
make pots that shatter –
if not in fire then falling
from careless hands –
all this to make sense of
the random moments
parading past our hearts
in chaos. instead
we should write poems
make pots that shatter –
if not in fire then falling
from careless hands –
