PICKINGS

Samples of poetry from NHI publications



TESTING

One: a single mic stand,
his lonely note
echoes in an empty venue,
no audience
to reverberate against.

Two: she's there
in the middle of the crowd.
Blonde/ brunette
slender with curves
cosmetically perfect
sexy in a clingy dress.

Testing the boundaries
of her personal space,
the taste of her red lips,
smoothness of her skin,
her point of give.

One, two more confident now:
me, you
