Some poems I can't

Scott Whitby, 2025



Some poems I won't, like about


my brother's last days

Dead babies of course

My best failure and

my parents' divorce


Others I can (did?)


The Tanager story and

that flowers belong

How Great Thou Art,

my mom's kitchen song


Some I should, but I'm a bit lazy


about who I love

and who I grieve,

who I want

and what I believe


But some I just can't...


What I want to do,

what I want to say.

They're my devil's deal

for another day
