poem: oh, honey
by sven at 7:00 am
This was for a friend who apologized after writing a "long" email…
Oh, honey
"Oh, honey"
says the voice in my head—
a voice,
I hasten to add,
that silently chats with both
adult men, children,
and cats, too—
don't feel embarrassed
about being too long-winded.
There's plenty of air in the world
to go around.
All the better that you should get to
exhale completely.
It makes me happy:
then you get to inhale
to full lung capacity.
Everyone should get to breathe.
