CIRCLE & TRIANGLE
Breathe
J.B. Rowell
poem is written to fill
this space
comes sputtering forth
in fits and spurts
becomes whole somehow
circular because
everything wants to be a circle
rounds upon itself tentatively
filling until
full until the only
choice is rupture
air retreats to corners

"air retreats to corners" love it!!
Thanks Pat - I've been stuck on the thought that "everything wants to be a circle" and have tried to write two poems about it - I'm not sure if I'm there yet . . .
