unfinished (20160927)

let us leave
all other things
unfinished

figures emerging half-formed
from the stone
clay still marred by bumps
and fingerprints
brushstrokes broad and
uneven
nails sticking out of the wood
shoes untied

only let me tell you
about my love
and how it too is
unfinished
unpolished
unapologetic
willing to consume
anything and everything
that grows like a choking weed
between us

  1. So much honesty in your words. Incomplete projects, relationships, puzzles, etc really frustrate me. I like things wrapped up in neat packages, but I know sometimes things can’t be compartmentalized.
