Nestor David Armas Poems

The anticipation is there

Heavy thick like a warm blanket
...

Under that brim

Stands a woman,
...

You've uncorked me

Like a radiator leaking
...

I buried you

In a shallow grave,
...

In your direction
I look often,
Distracted
By the beauty I see,
...

It's her most precious possession;

Bordering on obsession,
...

I see you from afar;

Twinkling brightly like a star,
...

When the morning air wakes me;
Crisp and chill,
It's a whole new day;
As my first thoughts begin to form,
...

I live my life in fast forward;

Only pausing when I sleep,
...

One at a time, word by word,
They're laid down like a heavy sword,
Each line forms more words come together,
A long boundary without a tether,
...
