“It Began About Love” (excerpt from Adam Dustus’ upcoming poetry book)

The following poem is taken from pg. 6 of the “Free Form” section of In & Out of Line (Dustus 2009). This collection will be released in a matter of days. Here’s to Poetry Month!

It Began About Love

Sometimes I think
I’m learning to feel
A universe inside me
One person who’s real

I have a belief
In that I can dream
Of what I can be
From all I have seen

I was relaxed
As much as could be
Fighting through fierce
Anxiety

I do know my own
Life I say well
Inhibiting delusions
Convictions of hell

It all came around
Circle of time
Blooming new attitude
After losing my mind
