Cause For Clarity

When written words settle like lightning zaps to marrow and bone, communication blooms. If metaphor plunks down with dull thud, or hides behind a dim screen, the seeker's intellect bangs shut. Shoot for the goal with sharp lucidity

Ted Badger, of Lucidity Poetry Journal and Lucidity annual poetry retreat has led a campaign for 25 years to chuck obscurity in poetry, which is, of course, directly opposed to the mainstream literary push. I like his way of thinking.

Thank you, Muhammad. There is an annual poetry retreat named Lucidity in April, our national poetry month. We always attend.
