why should a mourner I be?

I want to talk to you.
Hence these silly sonnets.

For in some open perfect,
I want to address the sorrows
I caused, especially those in the East Village.

If you give me a folk song,
I will give you everything
from the front door to the cottage moon.

I want to read what you have to say,
more tender than words can me.

The more time that goes on,
the more I feel I was nothing,
but a garden joke of lace.

My lady conversations now
don't find the landing spots that I need to pilot my love.
