What a good poem does
is make you feel
alive -
reminds you
but not in your head
in your body
how it feels
to be alive -
because we die
a bit
every day
and barely notice
we work
and barely notice
we eat
and barely notice
we talk
and barely notice
make love
and barely notice;
a good poem
like a laser pointer
helps you
notice.
