is a poem is
as the sculptor said
the sculpture is there in the rock
already
there in the dictionary
and the thesaurus
the acronyms the synonyms
the meter and the alliterations
personifications onomatopoeia
all the etceteras
in the all the brain cells
of everyone who has lived
or will live
there
is THE poem
like a grain of sand dropped into superheated water
an explosion waits
the grain of sand is there in the timer
the water boils in you
like a stick in a candyfloss machine
a bomb down a mortar tube
the rising sun
a supernova
when all this falls from it
there
is THE poem
when poets procreate
in an orgy of social loneliness
the singularity of a single thought
can create a universe
a bookworm-hole
a crossing
look me in the eye of my words
this
is MY poem
surfed in like a wave
