Defining
Poetry on a Sunday Morning in Bed
Poetry: Off-ramp for creativity on our subjective turnpikes
when routine paves over shards and gems.
Poetry: Desire.
Poetry: Meditating
on horizons of concept
or experience so as to hover above it.
Poetry: To make
manifest.
Poetry: Death fright.
Poetry: Bloom.
Poetry: In our
attics, an art deco time machine:
Polishing. Tinkering. Ordering knobs on eBay.
Poetry: Faces lit around the campfire.
Poetry: The virgin birth.
Poetry: Regime.
Poetry: Denny’s,
Tangiers, trains, New Orleans,
The Times, Tegucigalpa,
et cetera.
Poetry: Rugby
fools without helmets in the mud.
Poetry: Pickup lines to ourselves.
Poetry: How
much of it--how stunning--has never become
in the yawning canyon of man.
