The 2009 experiment is almost here. I’m feeling nostalgic. I’m posting one of my faves from experiments gone by…
Join the 3:15 Experiment Facebook Group to stay in the hypnagogic loop.

Seattle, WA
cherry blossom midnight
sneaking spoons in the
dark hollow cherished
far too many words to
not describe my heart-break
it breaks itself you know
it erases its own glee
tumbling like laundry lists
believe that memory
believe that gesture
don’t believe your eyes
touch is like grapefruit
round and sensitive
the eyes two
vulnerable moments
of now
my god doesn’t like
traffic lights
or marshmallows
my god knows something
about picket lines
and visits to the dentist
I want more of less
much more of less
dwindling down into a single
current of sleep
not darkness something
lucid and malleable
perhaps I am not a poet after all
perhaps I am a
mailbox
There is no solution
to
this mathematics
