Convenience

Dave BontaContemplative

love if convenient would be high treason

a peace made on disadvantageous terms with break-up and feud

a room is the last enemy to all the world

falling from time into desire

no hand or pinion full of consequence

should crowd into such a hole

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Friday 10 July 1663.

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

would be high
a peace made on terms
