fresh take

she read me poetry
as i drove
down the crowded highway
the words were mine
but the meaning
shifted
as i heard them
from another mouth
they became disassociated
with
my tangled self perception
became
something different
i could finally
see in a new light

  1. I remember your response when I read one of your poems and sent it to you…. seemed similar. I remember you were like, I don’t remember writing that. But it was a beautiful poem.
