Horsey





For the Js


I heard

a herd of whispers

and hold on to the

latter syllables

as fact.


An entirety of motion

doesn’t make motion

move.


I spoke to you

once,

and speaking makes

spoken to

solid, if only.


Words are

pleasure


and I had the pleasure

of speaking words

to you.


Had I not thought

of it,

I would have

spoken more


(words, I mean).


***


And I ride,

the horsey,


grateful of having

had

the pleasure.
