St. Pope John I

I open myself up and

all that’s inside is a song


you’d imagine your

guardian angel to sing


on-key. out of these

minor chords and dissonance--


I sound wrong. I have not been

tuned properly.



I am too old to be sneaking

out of my own house, but I

do it anyways.


the stairs creak below these toes.

no one emerges from dark bedrooms

to stop me.
