I wished to be a priest smoking in a garden, gazing at faded photographs of ancestors, They’re breath like the dry sound of reeds hollow in the wind. Empty as raincoats hung up to dry under a dark a private weather. Roses leeched by rain circling the lake like a reoccurring dream. £ September 12 2024
I’m beginning to wonder if it’s payola to have a poem tread. I think is low class to do such things. I have almost fifty poems published. I didn’t come to this site to have my poem’s blown off Elliot, that’s why I left in the first place in 2021. I’ve reached a certain skill level that shouldn’t be dismissed. A few more poems never read and I’m gone. This is a poetry site… I thought. Buying “suns” to get a second look. How low is that!!!!!!
