An Unnamed Poem

By Douglas Groothuis, PhD


This unnamed poem was written by me on April 17, 1982, on an IBM Selectric typewriter. During this time, I was doing campus ministry at The McKenzie Study Center in Eugene, Oregon. It is unpublished and never submitted for publication. So, it appears here for the first time. It was mostly lost for decades until our recent move to Michigan when it appeared when I was combing through endless mounds of papers, articles, and files. I used to write more poetry when I was younger, for what it’s worth. Perhaps you will find some inspiration to love in this poem. I have made no corrections or tried to rewrite any of it.

Used the inverter thinking I was clever… and flipped a blank into a live shell. That instant regret only happens in Buckshot Roulette.
