Richard Hinz Poems

I have two eyes
One looks up
To the sky
The other
...

In a place
Where I am
You enter
Into me
...

We all should have a protective inclination
To protect the eye
With the eye we see
And what the eye sees
...

I profess Angels
For angles
And they smiled
Oh..
...

I saw you there in the parking lot
Standing all alone with your little push cart
Looking for your car to go home
You looked at me and gave a helpless smile
...

There are two ways
To tame a dragon
One way is to wait
Till it sleeps
...

I never know when you will call
Then you come without warning
I give you all that I am
And you leave!
...

The greatest gift
Is to help the blind
To see
Spit on my hands
...

Every event is like a bazaar
We bargain with our minds
And cast our bids
With our hearts
...

I built a bridge
Out of flesh and bone
But when I got over
No one was home
...
