When I Ask Her If She Likes To Write Poetry Poem by RIC BASTASA
When I Ask Her If She Likes To Write Poetry
when i ask her
if she likes to write poetry
she says
she does not like to go
naked
and when i ask her if
she likes to read poetry
she answers
with clarity
and with the directness
of a cold stare
at a high temperature
of her heyday
neither do i like to
see naked people
bathing on a sunny beach
she prefers living
in her own privacy
inside the discreet pages
of her diary
