Hello.

I guess
we haven't spoken
in a while.
You can
brush me off,
and walk briskly
away.

I just stopped
to say hello.

    I like these short to-the-point free verse ones. Those are my favorite.

    I agree, with H.P., "the Dox" knows poetry.

    These poems are so simple and direct. I aspire to write these types of poems. They are much more difficult than people assume. If you haven't done so already, check out the Beat poet Gary Snyder. You've done a superb job, JB.
