Sweat

He sweats
Every time a plane flies too low.
I sweat
Every time a meeting runs too slow.
She sweats
Every time she’s called on in class.
The sweat
Of summer heat may run off your ass.
If you say you don’t sweat,
You’re a liar.
You might sweat
If your heart’s on fire,
Or at unexpected moments
When stretched by stress,
Or in a jolt of fear,
Or during a difficult test.

To sweat is human -
To tell the truth about your sweat,
Now that’s divine.

April isn’t quite here yet, but I am beginning my revolution a bit early. If you don’t know what the heck I’m talking about, see: http://ravenswingpoetry.wordpress.com/2008/03/19/the-revolution-will-be-poeticized/.

The Revolution Will Be Poeticized.

In honor of National Poetry Month (April), I have chosen to write 100 poems during the month of April! (Most of) these will be posted on this blog.

Happy (Early) National Poetry Month!
