I found a notebook of old poems
In the basement of my parents house
And they were filled with an angry innocence
And metaphors of the sea
I have never been to sea
I read the words
As I sat on stone
Tearing out the pages
One by one
Letting them drop out of my hands
And into the water
Floating slowly with the stream
Away
They were not my words any more
