INSATIABLE

Glancing up at one of many windows
in a dream, and she preoccupied—
what was it then that hungered so

to be noticed, what little boy revisits
my mortality, what mother of us all
plants a seed that grows and grows

into the damnedest things, like poetry?
As for love and wisdom, what value
then if not gained first hand?
