GUITAR (selected poem from the book)

You stare at me
from across the room
cracks forming
in your belly

I've neglected you of late
I'm sorry
But life has a way of
creeping inside

It's not your fault
You are only as great
as the hands that caress you
and I've been remiss

But I can make you sing
by rubbing your neck
to ease the tension headache

I can make you cry
by touching you
softly now
harder as we move together

I can make you
whisper
and yet growl
like an animal in heat

But one thing
I cannot do
is forget you
