As This Poem

But the stories we tell each other.

My favorite poem of mine. I don't swear often in verse. But as a poet's job is word choice, it's the right one.

This fucking world; it's so beautiful,
But the stories we tell each other.

-fuck-

I wonder if the wind that pushes the oak leaves together,
Makes them feel as uncomfortable as this poem.
