one of those poems I wrote when I was feeling particularly odd...
“How Am I?”

How am I?

I’m a Pablo Picasso jigsaw puzzle.
Mentally?  A pineapple upside down cake!
My heart is a love letter in origami,
Give or take.

My body is a phone waiting to ring.
Have you left me off the hook, I wonder?
I’m a dandelion wish for more dandelions
In the first quake of thunder.

My life is an hourglass showcase
Where the sands miss the sea
And the person I miss the most…
The person I miss the most is me.

How am I?
“I’m fine, thanks for asking.”
