Homeless Poet
March 15, 2017
Living off scrap inspiration
And recycled words,
I seek shelter in old poems,
But even their lines
Can’t house my growing story.
So I fashion makeshift stanzas
And piece together
The shambles of my creativity,
Until they too fall apart
And I set off in search
Of a poem I can call home.
