Thanks For The Because Poem by R.S. Farris

Thanks For The Because



do i have a right to be lonely
when you cling to scraps of love?

what grounds do i have to be tired
when unknown peace waits me at home?

you're in my head, you ocean queens,
you pool-stick cowboys, artisans-

you're in my head, my ears, my hands-
you give the why for waking up,
the how for pressing on

this is pretty much your best so far farris...it helps that I know the backround a little bit but I think it's very powerful even without. -landrey
