Welcome to Poetry Friday!
(I know it's Saturday but just pretend.)
As Audre Lord said, poetry is not a luxury.
Sometimes, it's all you got!
I have been getting some responses on the ee cummings thing, so i guess
mood (am i)
little in MORE
listeningest floweringmore
to hear him.
(haw, haw!)
So here's one from ee, and it's kind of got a "Renaissance Pleasure Faire" quality to it, if I may be so bold. (see also: Lord of the Rings)
(dare i say: Led Zeppelin IV?)
ahem:
open your heart::
i'll give you a treasure
of tiniest world
a piece of forever with
summitless younger than
angels are mountains
rivery forests
towerful towns(queen
poet king float
sprout heroes of moonstar
flutter to and
swim blossoms of person)through
musical shadows while hunted
by daemons
seethe luminous
leopards(on wingfeet of thingfear)
come ships go
snowily sailing
perfect silence.
Absolute ocean
