And Other Reasons
Lying awake
Thoughts lingering
Then moving on
Concerning why and
How
Things change
Without permission or
Explanations
Everything is tenuous
As late night scrolling through
Various lives
Some here
Some gone
Pausing again at one
Who exists only in memory
Perpetually
Almost half my age
And wondering
If away from all of this
He sleeps in peace.
Anne Mikusinski has always been in love with words. She’s been writing poems and short stories since she was seven. Her influences range from Robert Frost and Dylan Thomas to David Byrne and Nick Cave. She hopes that one day, some of her writing will impress others the way these writers have had an impact on her.
