Poems
Feb 2011
Poet in a Thicket
It was a quick loud sound
The cabin over-heated
***** no longer thin
Elegant words will not do here
Long buildings hang outside
It is a Logging camp with
a prisoner poet
Pacing the creaking floor all night
I race to the back door
Fall into the thicket with one foot
caught in mud
Rain came with a rip and roar
My brown fingers freed myself
Absolute power is a vortex of insanity
Reason has lost its exaltation
The Masters of poetry are laughing
Presentiments long shadow was ignored
The sun will go down
My poet will be lost in the thicket
This, a vision of my world..
