My Turn
May/June 2015
John Kazlauskas Poetry and Art



PictureJKazlauskas_Wild Horses_
     yesterday

when you learn the truth
nothing remains frozen
strawberries burst out
over yellow chiffon cake
leaking out eternal secrets
to naïve young men and women
who, seeing the eternal
in their curled palms
dance to boogie woogie music
until the sun rises
and they return to their straw nests

            speeding

I have ridden to new mexico
two wheels skimming black asphalt
a millimeter off
and death is the next card
 
driven rain
strikes like pounded nails
my hands are curled
like holding a new born baby
 
no wind today
to blow the rains away
across the parched land
is rain the culprit
 
a burst of sunlight
breaks the monotony
of miles and miles of nothing
is sin the result of a thought
