David Kavanagh Poet Monoku

Cul De Sac

a time capsule locks inside my head ~ box of gray matter lined with lead

pipe dreams and u bends from a life i led ~ sealed off now until i’m dead

Tom Cunningham February 27, 2023 at 6:05 PM Bet those secrets would make for some great reading David. Tom David Kavanagh February 28, 2023 at 1:14 AM Perhaps a few off cuts seep into my poems from time to time Tom, but the main parts are truly locked away, cheers David

Jenna Logan February 27, 2023 at 3:26 PM Shaped like a neck pillow, but no soft place to lay a head. David Kavanagh February 27, 2023 at 3:39 PM Great description Jenna, neck pillows are an expedient gizmo but certainly not a life solution for comfort, cheers David

Daniel Turner February 27, 2023 at 12:44 PM David I am an avid proponent of outside the box poetry and this certainly qualifies. Looking deeper is (IMO) what makes a poet better. A winner in my book. David Kavanagh February 27, 2023 at 12:54 PM Thanks so much Daniel, I’ll never be a winner for extravagant poetic language, but I do try think outside the box and hopefully bring others for an abstract ride, even if it’s just down a cul de sac, cheers David
