'block' (december 2008)

when I try to commit you to lines
and a series of images
your nature is revealed to me-
unnatural.

the attempt at bringing you
into the focus
of phrase, rhyme, verse and foot
defies my terms
and you are left unbound

how I dream of claiming you
breaking your shape
down into words
the verses purging you
into a form reconcilable
with its formation
a paradox
perfectly fitting in its imperfection
