should have

I should have grabbed more poetry

before the library closed.

now all I have

are loose words, syllables

where letter sounds bend or tip

but no magic to hold them

to the page.

all I have  is

regret

which really

makes words scatter.

now they'll never settle down.

It's just that I could've used some poetry

instead of this mess of

sounds & feeling.
