Random Selections of Poetry

No, these aren't randomly created poems (that is another page). This is a random grab from a selection of poems, mostly by myself, but with some inclusions from other folks: friends who write; friends who used to write; writers who are obscure-but-meaningful-to-me; famous writers. One advantage of this format is that, when there are variations of a poem that I haven't settled upon, I can include them all and let people give me feedback as to what they think.


+Castration+

Your eyes burn into me
steadily;

a lip quivering and I
retract my life
into my abdomen

                     -- (92/93, originally printed anonymously in _Pathways_)
