Letters of Letters

Letters of letters

I live between the lines
Or above them
Or rather in the individual spaces between the  letters of each word
Jumping the voids between each word in each line
Gently gliding or rock climbing from one stanza to the next
Living in my script
Hanging on the ledges of capital I s
Sliding down the slopes of M s and W s
Curling up in the nests of the O
Running circles and jumping off the dive board of Q into my sea of words
Looking out my triangle window of my Teepee house of A
Restfully sleeping in the slopes of the S,s
While catching my Z's

Breaking out of my crack egg shelled Cs

Leaning on the Brick walls of my Ls

Protected from the pouring drew drop Bs

Upon the inverted V of my Sundial roof

Not only in the straight and structured fonts of abandoned typewriters

Printed P’s of the Past

But the looping legato drawings of dancing lady G’s

Or swooping dipping questions ending with a Y

The completely perpendicular reading nook of T tree

The playground ladders and slides of R’s

Moving me to a youth of simple thoughts and words

For as a gentle bowing n grows it's sharpens to adulthood

With wide smiling D’s of late night emails

The tooth edge E combing my hair and memories

The X’s of mental block upon eyes being lifted

The cupping hands of U holding K

Gracing me into a simple bed of gentle H’s

And Cradle arm J’s

F not extending its middle finger but the two on the side

The letters from letters

Where this poem is a remix

Of my alphabet soup
The letters of letters with lessons

Each single one we hear and read it leaves an impression
