Recently I realized I love old class
notes. How now they make no sense.
after the class is gone
digging further into the page
with each thought burrowing
deeper deeper deeper
I threw away my old notes.
Because they didn’t have art on them
But maybe that was a mistake.

I usually write with pencil,
but I thought I’d dress it up

a paper
blank of words
with drawings all in the margins
leaving space for words
that aren’t.
I kept that one.
