Time for a poetry break. I posted the text for this poem as part of my May poetry newsletter. You can read it here. In the video, I deny that I intended it as a religious poem (notwithstanding Matt. 11:7) and suggest, instead, that it’s a poem about suburbia. But it could also be a poem about sex. Or it could be a poem about writing. Or maybe all those themes at once. That’s what I love about poetry – you get to play with ambiguities without ever having to resolve them.
