Lost Someone said that: “Lost is a place, too” I found this place, when I was five in the Sears and Roebuck store, I wandered off into the Christmas crush and for twenty minutes knew what it meant to be orphaned I found it again, at nineteen in the north Georgia mountains, black bears and rattlesnakes live there, I discovered and came to believe that God did not. some times though, it finds us like cancer at midlife it found me bowed before my bowl of sacred fruit with sterile seed believing the ambrosial promise that it will not rot it nests in the sulcus of skull bones rustling like rat claws against the wall and picks me clean as the glass eye that never saw it coming and now in this present sky it finds me reaching across to the other side to touch the mirror mind framed with all that I once knew surprised that I recognize everything in this place called lost.
