…Here,
            as one 
               with 
                the air
            i am a
      stray blade 
of couch grass
      dancing  
        in the 
        wind..
           As
       Life is,
      so am I 
    TODAY..

Login to Reply Stafish Olor Date: 10/13/2021 5:35:00 PM I just found something on google about concrete poems and you are right. Even says they can be paired with audio files which is perfect in this case. I appreciate you. Maybe I will practice writing in this style a bit more. Stafish Olor Date: 10/13/2021 5:27:00 PM Thanks Robert. Is that what the form should be? I did try to shape it like couch grass. I will go read a little more about concrete poems. Thanks for the inspiration.
