I had hoped you would find me
Instead I gave a link: a silence is
In me and I don’t believe I will
Ever be able to break it. I’m not
Sure what myth it stems from: child
hood? A bad trip? A long stagnant
Marriage? I am afraid it is deeper
Much deeper - it transcends life
Enters an abyss of existence - perhaps
That’s why at times I gravitate
Towards math: the hard sciences
Their silence and truth reawaken
My truth: that poetry is part of the code
My code in life: my silence enjoyed
