The Sonnet’s Joy

The measured lines
and rhythmic beats
become like mines
souring the sweets
So be impressed
when poets wrest
a timed-beat rhyme

Literalist

Ridiculous!
I mean, absurd!
Comparing US
to those two birds!
We’ve got no wings!
Nor.. feathered... things!
A poet? No!

What Are Words For

I’m sitting here
not in nor out
nor very clear
what I’m about
I’m in a funk
and writing junk
just to get through
