patellar reflex

i love, i love, i love.

i cannot stop but
it is so near
when you are--

i want to just be.

its involuntary, all of it.
like a patellar reflex in
my knee, i love you.

  1. i love poems like this - that lull you with their simple language and then jerk you into consciousness with some novel progression of words.
