how many is too many
i ask into the dark
illuminated only by my bright computer screen
how many is too many
i ask as my folder explodes
with new poems every night
how many is too many
says the twenty-nine i’ve written so far
less than two months in
how many is too many
i say to my friends
they know they’re all about you
how many is too many
this’ll be my thirtieth
is that too many?
