Hands and Knees by mindgallery
The world can be so hard and so rejecting
that it’s really hard to find a
home in the
world
– Arthur Miller

Here we are sisters and brothers
standing next to each
other
as we go down on our hands
and knees and
all
the kindness we believed in
in this sublime
bullshit
time
*
But it’s a fine world
and one day
we’ll find
it

Over time, my collection of saved missed connections poems will dwindle (I think I may have enough to take me through until November) but mindgallery was such a frequent contributor to the Brooklyn forum that I’m not sure how many of those saved pieces are his… I’ll need to sort through all my various documents so the “remains” can be disbursed evenly. It all feels a bit like a cremation ceremony – scattering poems to the wind and sea.
