& SO ON
for Darrell Gray


Someone once told me
it’s a non-verbal
medium, expressing yourself

to another. Someone else said,
Please accept my apologies for not
expressing myself better. I know

what I mean, but the words,
the WORDS will not contain it.
They are like girls one meets

& goes to bed with, & who
afterward leave, & who
when you see them on the street

a week later simply smile
& keep walking





James Humphrey, “& So On” from The Re-Learning. Copyright © 1976, 2006 by Poets Alive Press/James Humphrey.
