9:22 am - This is not about pears
pears1

Dissolved outlines form a scumbled
crevice through which light escapes,
dissipates,

pears2

reminding us of error’s beauty,
that this is not about pears,

pears3

most certainly not about pears.

--from "This is Not About Pears" by Matthew Hittinger

7:23 pm - pears (three different ones)
Some say
it was a pear
Eve ate.

pear1

Why else the shape
of the womb,
or of the cello
Whose single song is grief
for the parent tree?

pear2

Why else the fruit itself
tawny and sweet
which your lover
over breakfast
lets go your pear-
shaped breast
to reach for?

pear3

9:24 pm - in the arms of an angel
angel2

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight


current music: sarah mclachlan--angel
