poetry or bust

[celticlovecross]

"there is nothing outside the text" ~jacques derrida, De la grammatologie (Of Grammatology)
there is nothing outside the poem.  derrida revised by natalie.

"portrait of the artist"

under the brim of a brown cabbie pulled low
she hides her impossible eyes sunk in the hollows
of their own darkness behind plastic red rims
she couldn't recognize your face

I really like these poems. In fact, they may be some of the best poems I've ever read of yours.
