Non Poems

Self-Infliction 1

 

To show

not tell

the essence

of verse

 

Narrative

wording

the image

reversed

 

A rainbow

unseen

is folly

described

 

Each moment

explained

a feeling

— contrived

 

**

 

 

Self-Infliction 2

 

Poetry done right

 “is not a hobby”

Filling the hours

with time undone

 

Poetry from the heart

 “is not descriptive”

Where words die orphaned

— and words die young

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2026)
