Any good poem is
only the bones
what is essential
to drive the nail home
Peel away all of the
flesh and the skin
nothing to keep honest
words from their kin
Any good poem will
speak of the essences
strip away everything
leave only presences
Any good poem is
only the bones
chew off the meat
drink up and go home
