The Miracle Of Birth: Shadorma
THE MIRACLE OF BIRTH
If I may
I beg to announce
A healthy
Shadorma
No congratulations please
Simply played midwife
A Letter Away: Senryu
A LETTER AWAY
Beware and be alert
Posting: so close to posing
That they can switch rôle
Thwarting The Gloom: Senryu
THWARTING THE GLOOM
Lights switched on midday
Not shameless exorbitance
… Poetic licence
On The Job (Fuck Me): Shadorma
ON THE JOB (FUCK ME)
Poet’s job
To spark and nurture
Both free thought
And open
Emotion, even open
Doors to other realms
Poets Out Loud: Four By Six
POETS OUT LOUD
Let’s share our poetry
For without that I fear
It might quickly descend
Into onanism
Unfinished Love Poem
UNFINISHED LOVE POEM
Lay it aside for a while
Maybe days or weeks
Sometimes even years
Till all falls into place
A significant poem will
Always find its moment
And in that moment
Their writer will also
Find a completeness
Those not significant
Reveal themselves as such
And are easily thrown away
Poet As In A Mirror: Tanka
POET AS IN A MIRROR
Inspire me please
Saying the unexpected
Revealing your deeps
Encouraged by your courage
To write something worth reading
Poet Recalled: Shadorma
POET RECALLED
The bladder
Grabs the microphone
And cries out,
“Come back here.
Bugger creativity.
Prioritise, son!”
À La Mcluhan: Cinqku
À LA McLUHAN
Writing
In white ink
On white paper
Made what she had to say
Quite clear
