I want a poem
I so want a poem
May be not just want but need
The need to scratch the itch
That sears the soul
To feed the maga* fire
Burning since the birth
Of time
I want a poem that can absolve me
Of this perenniality
*maga - an enchantress
It’s time for another response poem.
This time, I responded to a cheeky piece by writer Jerry Pinto.
