new from above/ground press: Ken Norris’ LOOKING INTO IT

WRITING POEMS
I'm writing poems,
trying to find a place to stand.

Sometimes you can awaken
yourself with a poem.

It doesn't always have to be
about the reader's pleasure.

Sometimes you're just desperately trying
to save your damaged soul.
