James McLain Poems

I traded my lower middle body to him,
to learn to read and write.
My lips and breasts he could not touch.
The English teacher dressed in red I was.
...

My aeroplane
does not have insurance
do not bleed on the tip
give it back..yea, o.k.
...

Across the years we lost touch, your way was unknown to me,
mine to you.
How did we let our years fly, the children you have now,
were supposed to be mine, mine yours.
...

Double eclipse of the blue moon look above,
from below the blind light of.
Closer to us yesterday sped away tomorrow is.
It all came together to soon torn apart.
...

Things they come and things they go,
pushing up to the sun here where I grow.
Why it is you,
to whom I speak under the veil of dusk.
...

Elegance pure mien.
As for this person to whom it with you it brings.
The mermaid queen is sad such beauty faced.
Her shape is like the sand of time.
...

In front of your friend in class.
Are they really to be entertained.
At my expense when in the hall,
from behing you come up and give me that squeeze.
...

My fairest woman once a child.
I am in possession looking of.
The open speaking woman speaking to.
Do to do the singing song
...

Because of it 'we' laughed as natures does so common green.
Realized it is to I became,
such implied there in her favor.
And being left off distant of, but near to her, I thus became.
...

What kind of poet are you if you can not,
constantly move back and forth to the edge of what is so far.
God did not make that mess in your back yard.
Inverted eights or pie I won't eat because.
...
