My friend Fernando has invented the Fibonacci poem - a form poem following the fibonacci sequence in syllables.  Here's mine.  


Hold
me
tight as
angry men's
fists, your ligature:
a bonfire aflame in my spine.
There is only exhalation; once, twice - that is all.

I
drop
from your
embrace, spent.
A cooling ensues:
diaphragm contracts, chest swells like
the ocean. I miss you in all this water, come home.
