Lovelorn Poet in Flagstaff, AZ: Truth: Your Poem Is Better

Unmade Bed by Shawn Hoke

After the silence I listened to the earthquake
After all that yelling I needed peace and quiet
I needed someplace safe

I had a very long beard
and it’s been said that all bearded men have something to hide
The next day I posted a picture that hid nothing
And I’m so glad she replied with silence
I wouldn’t have found the other poems

It’s 4am
And they’re selling pink knives on the history channel
And Blades Gone Wild is being sold on the spike channel
It’s 5 am
and I must go to bed

peace
someplace safe
all bearded men have something

day
that hid nothing
glad

with silence
have found  poems
knives
is being sold
I listened I needed I needed I had I posted I’m I wouldn’t I must
it’s been said It’s 4am It’s 5 am
After the silence After all that yelling
to the earthquake to hide to bed
and quiet and that and pink and Blades Gone Wild and so and go
a very long beard a picture
The next the other the history the spike
on channel on channel
she replied
they’re selling
