surrogates

most of what I do is a surrogate for
just this

the simple arrangement of words
abstract

not very practical -- a creative imperative
insatiable

how do I break it to the tangibles of my life
to make way for words? let the hard edges
give way to untouchables?

my muse said
substitute
it'd be a damn shame not to
