 i don’t know when
i started talking
out loud
to myself
 
one day
my reasoned
calm voice
echoed back to me
expansively in
the empty room
 
i asked him why?
why didn’t he stop?
 
but my dead brother
didn’t reply in the
silence
 
i kept talking
anyway
 
it felt good
and i thought
maybe, maybe
someday
 
he might answer

    I started my "Poem-A-Day" writing exercise back in 2010. It was a way to get into the habit of writing everyday.  It took awhile but once I got into it I really enjoyed the process.  I took a break in 2023 to work on getting "Carbon Copy" into the wild. I also wanted to re-read my poem-a-day scribblings to see if there were any unpolished gems amongst the rubble.  My plan is to post one per week in my Blog.  Find "Carbon Copy" at:
