Three Lines

[Ramona]

I guess I've been doing these three-line poems for a while. Here's a few. Each "stanza" is one poem but they don't have individual titles, I'll refer to them by numbers.

-----

1.) she lays broken on the concrete
staring at the sky
how come from here things look so good?

2.) it's funny how
when the sun shines
the blues and greens intensify

3.) sing me love songs and hold my hand
things don't always have to be so goddamn hard
we have it easy

4.) sometimes you lose things
'cause you have a hole in your pocket
maybe that's how i lost you

5.) out by the border
where the coyotes run
that's where things get hard

[Queen of Rain]

brilliant my dear... the way every poem stands on is own yet simultaneoulsy holds the same imagery and theme as the rest. Think last line of 3rd could need an extra syllable or two and maybe a more sophisticated word than easy?

and dear, last stanza is perfection!
