A Poem: #12

And because I'm in the an incredibly good mood, I've decided to post another poem. I also got of my lazy behind and grabbed my poem book. I wrote this poem the summer of 2005. Let's see, I was 17? I think. 2011-2005, take 6 years off 23....yeah I was 17. Seems like forever ago. Anyway, whenever I couldn't think of a title for a poem I just gave it a random number. So here it is:

# 12
06.15.05

Two holes
blank
tinted with color
black, blue, green, gray, brown
Windows, foggy
portals into the mind
paths into the body
passageways into the soul
Mirrors
Reflectors of images; emotions
fear, anxiety, happiness, joy,
frustration, anger
shift---Now searching
downcast---Now hiding
blank---Now expressionless
direct---Bold.
