jacob erincilberto Poems

like a blazing gold leaf
clinging to the autumn tree
like a tarnished diamond
amidst jagged glass
...

page fifty
and i am stone blind blissfully
settling into the trip
but broke from so many city stops
...

'whacha readin' fella? '
he asked real incessantly
i finally interrupted,
'it's kerouac, jack'

The Best Poem Of jacob erincilberto

Simile's Candid Mirror

like a blazing gold leaf
clinging to the autumn tree
like a tarnished diamond
amidst jagged glass
like a punctured tire
gasping for air
like a lamp
with a burned out bulb
like a flashlight
with dead batteries
like a fountain
with no youth
like rusted pennies
with no wishes
like a sink
with no dishes
like super glue
with nothing to hold together

the leaf falls flat on a dark, cheapened ground, old
and hopeless, and hungry
and apart.
