Listen to poem:
Gravity Brevity
Gravity Brevity
If brevity matters, dreams race swift than nightmares to catchup,
No muck and mire, no festering around, nothing to patch up,
A soloist than an orchestra, focus on one than all,
Critiques take a high note to second guess, a rise from a fall,
To explode in verse, implode to a terse form, worst or better,
A full platter, gluttonous matter, honey from hive, sweeter.
