Does this beard make me look fat

Poem: Two Blanks-by Gregory Crosby (big ups to the man for writing something so damn beautiful)


I could start a heart in your fire, & close
the grate, so the eye gets in your smoke.
I could start a riot in your ears just by
whispering our fate. I could start a car
in your ditch & spin my wheels & hum
along to your FM stations of the cross.
I could start a war in your peace with a kiss.
I could start a blister in your bliss,
a fight in your flight, a dream in your dross.
I could start a moon in your sun just by
turning away. I could start a night in
your day, an all day long in your up all
night. I could start a void in your abyss.
I could start down that road. End up with this.
