I'm reposting this poem because i just got it published in "The best poems and poets of 2001."
In life things run parallel
  Constantly out of reach
You can stretch and stretch
But never touch or meet.
           Yet,
Still you try to defeat
The barriar, The distance
           For
  That almost touching
         Instant.

I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

Congrats to you.  It is good to see when someone gets published even if they write only for themself.

We are born into this world alone, and we will die alone.  It is what we do between those times that matters.  This is where we leave our mark.

Nicely written.  I like your apparently freestyle form that still comes across with a sense of rhythm.
