    So simple, but it is also so genius. This is a good poem...I like it a lot. Short poems are very difficult for most, however that is not the case for you.

      long division...
      means i've been long without love
      belly worms are like butterflies
      I hide inside
      believe i am nothing

      butt of breath...
      when i finally decide to speak i am usually drunk and make an ass of myself

      if I could only keep it honest
      thus whisper
      maybe I could find someone... so "to be two"

      but this was very personal so I wouldn't expect anyone to get it

        Tim, I was wrong, I can't kick myself, because.. I never would of guessed at this. I see it so clearly thanks to you. This is why I say I am a babe in the woods when it comes to poetry, surrounded by the true masters. Wow, how do you do that?? How do you put so much into so few words and not lose one ounce of the emotion??
