On Sept. 22 2009 - my birthday, I embarked on a project to write a poem a day for 100 days (until December 31) to mark the completion of the decade. Since then I have completed a number of similar projects. My next goal is to reach one thousand poems.

On My Back
eyes open to world of beds and white coats
on my back
legs numb
no feeling
world works at breakneck speed
on my back in between waking and sleep
in the slow motion stillness
dormant
waiting for the thaw
waiting for healing
after the cure
