if_i_had_a_dollar
palm
i
almost
choked
myself
with
words
tonight
.
words
that
were
cascading
through
my
mind
and
heart
and
fighting
their
way
trying
to
make
a
space
in
my
mouth
big
enough
for
them
to
join
the
air
outside
.
to
travel
the
pathways
to
your
ears
,
the
ones
that
just
might
hear
them
.
if
i
had
a
dollar
for
every
word
i
wished
i'd
said
.
could
have
said
.
i'd
be
drowning
.
like
i
sit
here
,
drowning
in
words
.
the
words
that'll
never
reach
you
.
