Sticking Holes

The slipping seedling of poetry died sometime
A few days ago when I was doing other things.
It wilted and has been replaced by black dots
Somewhere on pages crowded with emptiness,
And clipped dumb phrases, and little pictures
Of houses, stick-people flying, and whatever else comes
Strolling by accident through my vacant mind.
