Poems In Progress

POEMS IN PROGRESS
You know, after working over
these poor things,
some wounded, gashed, bleeding,
and holding their sides,
it’s a wonder they trust me
to approach them at all,
considering their fragile conditions.
But I coax them,
time and time again,
urging them to reveal themselves,
hibernating in their dark barrels,
knowing that any moment
could be my last.
