some have god & i have this
rob plath
when i was a boy
i'd sit on the curb
at dusk & blow
into an empty soda bottle
a solemn sound
yet an unthreatening one
alien to my oblivious
innocent frame
but a future constant tune
that would arrive
soon enough
a song that'd
become as close to me
as the tubing beneath
my suit of skin
some have god
& i have this
