Length & Breath
for Nadine & Eric

along with what I breathe in
when I breathe in, I read

along with what I breathe our
when I breathe out, I write poems

I exhale them like a soprano exhales song
a long note follows a deep breath

Thank you, Eric, my friend and fellow poet, for stopping by and for, though brief, very kind remarks and thanks for always being an inspiration and for your own consistently brilliant poems.
