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

Daniel Turner Date: 2/27/2023 12:44:00 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. Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 2/27/2023 12:54:00 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
