Reach


I have no arms to speak of
as they are now cut off.
The hands as heart's doer,
without joint are now lost.
What mold now shall I grease and shape,
what form life now,
will my life take?

Complexity through simplicity... an economy of word to express greater depth than written... these are goals of poetry. I would say that this poem achieves those goals with great success. In other words - I love it.
