We Shall Give It Sense... Poem by RIC BASTASA

We Shall Give It Sense...

Rating: 5.0


an empty jar
outside the house

it is raining
and the glass windows are
misty

the waters begin to rise
clouds are still heavy
and dark

outside the winds are strong
and it is getting colder

the coconut trees are dancing
and the leaves are flying

doves roost in their umbrella house
and chickens and roosters keep
strict company in the pens

an empty jar is filled with
water and there is no hole inside it

there is an overflowing
and it is what i am feeling

i am giving it sense
we shall give it sense

this emptiness, this rain, this cold,
this umbrella house,

there are no holes in them.
doves and chickens and roosters.

pens.
