The Love of Space

I’ve thought about what you said,
About the economy of space within the walls of poetry.
About not using the same word
Over and over and over. Then I decided 
The rules are all about fear, about control. About dread.
About the de-evaluation of poetries dollar
On the page. About the plummeting value of words used loosely.
Then as if none of that matters, I turn 
And think about space. I love space.
I love to turn in space, 
especially the space between sheets.
