All This Chaos A Symphoy The City Composed Just For Us

Ralph Lauren Rugby is putting on a contest to find the next great poet. They've already found one: Joshua Bennett. Go here see him at the White House Poetry Slam...oh my god, it's incredible. Today I got an email today from Nicole from 360i representing Ralph Lauren and describing the project as this: "In celebration of culture, art, and inspiration, The Rugby Poets Club is searching for the next great poet to share their self expression through written or spoken word." They say it's a series inspired by the city. I like that.

For Her

I
forgot
that falling
could feel like flight.
Barely remembered
How sorely my hands missed
the joy of juggling stars
until I kissed all your rough spots
in rapid succession. You taste like
moon. A slice of sky God let me borrow.

-Joshua Bennett
