poem in a can
what gives this poem its misty fizz
is the opening hiss
emanating from the can of Coke
in insipid spaces between sips
burning calories of thoughts
mind hunts for meanings
in the blanks between blinks
between
the words
lines
and stanzas
nothing to latch on to
but this empty can of poem
and
a line of burp
