If I set out trying to write about something, it always ends up being something else.

This is the flash story that never ends
It just goes 'round and 'round, my friends
I started writing/revising it
Not knowing what it was
And I'll continue writing/revising it forever just because

Thrilled to have three tiny poems up on @havehashad.com!

www.havehashad.com/hadposts/amp...

Here’s one:

A city bursts inside of me
My head becomes heavy from bloom.
The lake leaks out of my eyes.
I'm pregnant with families.
They spill onto my toes and set up tents.
I can hear crying on my kneecaps.
At night, a train shivers with longing.
