two poems

________
 
a. Yourself
i'll hide nothing.
i will tell you the truth in two lines:
you have no-one
else.
look how the first line stings
yet the second gives us hope.
i show all this to you because
we ever are so young and strong.

b. Skill Sets
hat in hand
i shuffle pretty good
i can shuffle with the best of us.
not much for striding, strutting, stalking,
i can stumble, i can
shuffle good.
okay at lighting cigarettes, too.
