WAXING POETIC

"It is the job of poetry to clean up our word-clogged reality by creating silences around things."
~Stephen Mallarme ~
 
Hot, cold,
young, old,
fertile, bold
and incandescent.
 
Straight, bent,
heaven-sent,
mortgage, rent,
and fields of glory.
 
Bright, dark,
cardinal, lark,
cluttered, stark,
and luminescent.
 
Real deal,
take the wheel,
learn to feel,
and share your story.
 
The variety of life pleases my soul.
